[DeTomaso] More Calif Smog Checks

[Rick]

   Gotta ask now, anyone know if an 'average' Pantera can run thru one 
of these and not get a smog notice ? And of course the second question, 
accelerate hard, hit neutral, kill the engine and coast thru, then pop 
in gear and go at the top of the onramp ?
