that would be the 351 SR, i believe...  NOT a car to try to chase with a

Miata, unless of course you trick him into thinking you have one monster

motor in your car, and he brakes his

clutch/drive-shaft/axel/rear-end/etc  at the start point...   IIRC, one

of Saleen's cars busted its clutch in the middle of a road test for

Motor Trend/Road&Track.....  a few years ago
