Notes: Cliff got a new Mustang from Lee Austin in early 1972. In his first race at Riverside Raceway in Nashville, TN, he won the event, setting low ET at 7.15/203. - National Dragster 4/14/72 | The car used a Halibrand quick-change rear end with 4.52 gears. He switched to a high-gear-only setup from the Lenco 2-speed he had used previously. He still used a Lenco reverser. The body was from Fiberglass Ltd. The Stock Stroke Hemi used MT rods and 5.5:1 pistons. A Howard's cam was also used. Up top, the GMC 6/71 was reworked by Gary Dyer and was overdriven by 33%. Cragar supplied the intake manifold and blower drive. The engine was fed by Enderle injection. Mike Beard served as the crew chief. According to features from various car magazines at the time, Brown was said to have run some 6.8s at 210 with the car. Cliff also ran 7.22 at Miami. |
