Vic,
Thanks so much for having the desire to search this vehicle out and finally be able to own it. You have done a very nice job on the resto., and the et's are dropping like Ken's competors from the 70's.
I grew up in the Md. area and remember watching Ken Veney himself drive this vega many times and I have pictures of it somewhere!!! but what a ride back then, I sure do miss the old days.
I am looking forward to seeing the car at Norwalk this year and wil stop by to say hi and show that picture to ya, now I need to go find it!
Good luck this year and keep it on all 4 wheels, you have a very nice piece of History and it needs to stay alive. :wink:

Hey Vic,
What percentage were you running on the 8.06 run? I think you said earlier that you were running a 2 7/16" injection. That's pretty good with that size injection IMO. It sounds like you got a pretty good combo going for you.
