Almost as good as the "lightning fast acceleration" in an early 50's brochure describing the use of low range ultra.

Eric,

Put me down for a couple of shirts.

Although I don't have performance figures on my Packards, yet! Back in '65 my stock Ford Model A Tudor did the standing quarter in 26+ seconds so I know performance counts!

As BigKev said -

It is to be noted that another time, while we were supposed to be putting Armco guardrails along the side of the strip, while running untimed quarters the cam gear on the A shredded! This necessitated a call to a mate who arrived with a replacement gear and cam. Needless to say very little was done in digging post holes or assembling Armco that day.
