@@BuzzLOLOL That's what I was thinking. A pale yellow, 1974, Mazda, pick-up. You already don't see very many of those. Add a rear-mounted, Olds Toronado engine, _with boat headers,_ to the mix... If it does get found, they'll probably just find the body and frame - no engine. People suck.

You can gain a whole second by removing the tailgate. The tailgate space is probably also the best place to put the radiator. . Instaed of weights , a metal apron , wedge shape starting low, would get you by with less overall weight , more down force and less drag, take off another second.

It was on a good pass that last run. I think they would have had the 10. I liked this truck with a 455 Olds engine. We have one in a jet boat for years. Good factory heads good size crowed cam and predator carburetor which was way better than the 850 double pumper we used before. They can be powerful engines for sure.
