Title: Pinto On National TV-PassTime_Speed Channel
Post by: Srt on August 17, 2008, 11:09:23 AM
Last week on PassTime (speed channel) in Montgomery, Alabama, there was a guy with a red '79  Pinto taking a run (if you want to call it that).

Had a 302, really pretty car.  REALLY BAD SHOWING.  I don't know if the car just wasn't set up right or the guy driving it was lacking in experience but the car ran an 18:01  :wow:

Am embarrassment to the breed.
