Some W-31 Love

I am sure plenty of you have seen this video but figured I would post it. Not sure why I am having an issue with the link. Not sure why I have issues with youtube links here sometimes. See the links below.

I was just surprised that not one person commented on these videos after how long?

I agree. My brother had a W-31 and it surprised me how strong that car pulled. Pretty sure a 455 would get it though.

Wow...that yellow and gold one is wild!
Is that original???
He kind of dances around the question....saying the combo would be on the broadcast card...but he didn't say he actually found the card.
(Did I miss it?)

watched both videos and loved the narrative of having a special car of this caliber being the center of attention.

There shouldn't be any doubt about what would happen. Traction would determine how much difference at the end of a 1/4 mile.
