Next, the “Hard Limit,” a 1965 Mercury Comet Caliente races a ’65 Dodge Coronet and takes the win.

The Caliente finishes in just 8.77 seconds with a top speed of 164.53 mph compared to the Coronet’s 9.76 second finish and 136.32 mph top speed.

There is a wide disparity in some competition with clear advantages for some cars that reach speeds dramatically higher than their challenger.

In the case of this trip down the strip though, overall, this race is fairly competitive from start to finish with the Mercury only really significantly gaining ground at the tail end.

A Ford GT 350 Mustang goes against “Ghost From The Past,” a ’63 409 Chevy.

The Mustang leads for the majority of the length of the strip, but the Chevy manages to close the gap eventually even though the Mustang still pulls off the win.

The GT 350 completes the length of the strip in 10.44 seconds and a 124.69 mph top speed vs the Chevy’s 11.08 second finish time and 122.98 mph top speed.

In all, the 60s Nostalgia Super Stock event is an impressive showing of 60s cars but also simply a solid combination of drag races that any drag racing enthusiast could appreciate
