THE PARTING SHIFT: THE CHEVY RESPONSE TO THE SCREAMING MUSTANG FROM LAST WEEK!


THE PARTING SHIFT: THE CHEVY RESPONSE TO THE SCREAMING MUSTANG FROM LAST WEEK!

Tony Fillipone is a long time New England based drag racer who runs a pair of kick ass, small inch, Chevy IIs in Super Stock competition. He’s also a die hard stick shift guy that takes plenty of pleasure from spinning sub 300-inch small blocks to the moon and rowing gears down the strip!

Last week we ran a video of a 289ci Mustang Super Stocker so in the interest of equal time, we’re returning the favor by sending you down the strip on Tony Fillipone’s shoulder as he revs his 283 and does his best Grumpy Jenkins impression with the shift lever. This car is classified as a GT/I machine in right around 11 seconds by our count.

We’ve watched Tony run his cars at New England Dragway (where this was filmed) and other Northeast strips for years. They always put on a great show!

Press play to hear this little small block sing soprano!

    Hey Brian, do you know any more about Tony Fillipone’s motor?

    That was like listening to a hot chick with a beautiful voice sing the National Anthem.
