I think they called it &quot;War Emergency Speed&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/flag.gif[/img]


Reminds me of Spaceballs, &quot;Ludicrous Speed&quot;

Nitromethane is a fuel that needs to be injected and doesn't mix with carburetors and gasoline. As far as Nitrous Oxide, the typical plate type systems weren't commercially available until the late Seventies.

I know there were several styles of cragars during the era.

Anyone know the right period correct cragars for this car?
Appreciate the help

If you knew the right people and had the money back in the day Nitrous could be had. I dont know why anyone would think it was not available it was out many years before the 60s.
