Cool Holy Crap!

I finally got to take the 70 SS396 for a drive since I got it titled and registered today. All I can say is that the car is a beast and there's no way to drive it slowly! And I can't tell if the speedo is accurate or if the tach is accurate but I need to figure them out. I was cruising up my road at what I thought was around 35 mph until I realized that was the tach! DOH! This thing is over 3000 rpm's in 4th gear with the speedo reading 50 pretty dam fast so I have no idea what gears are actually in the car. The hardest part is getting used to the different shift behavior compared to the 5 speed in the SLowRunner. But what a rush!
