I like # 19, I've been in a Cannonball, the 1999 20th anniversary edition, in my 1974 SD455 4speed Trans Am. I got a call from Brock Yates inviting me into the event. Then I got smart and bought an 03 SRT10. The T/A is now officially scary to drive. And to think I had considered taking it to a Viper Days. I would not only have been laughed at but potentially gotten seriously hurt. Thirty years of technology do make a difference.

I had a blown small block that I ran in a truck for a few years, so I can relate to #45.
