Nice detail touch there - hockey strip has class index number for SG in place of the engine size.

Only thing I never liked about SG was you build the car to run low 8-sec, then electronically handicap it to hold the 9.90 class index. Starting line engines rev-up, tree goes done, car wheel stands then all but shuts off and then gradually accelerates to the top end. Always made more sense to me to run as hard as you could to the 330, then start cutting power.

I can't stand that either, Super Street and Super Comp the same way, however I can stand Super Street the best and Super Comp the least. At least Super Street has more door cars instead of dragsters!
