Obviously.
I knew a long time Ford mechanic and he told me a story about some local drag racers that ended up running a very successful Maverick. This is exactly why. Said they saw the first one and immediately figured it would make a good drag car due to it's design.

The Maverick special K posted I'd drive any day of the week. A buddy of mine as teenagers had a 2 door 1968 Falcon that was halfway decent as well with a 302 and four speed.
