No doubt exposing my ignorance, how come is the lead in the car?
God's Peace to you.

You set it on the accelerator.
'50 Chevys were not designed to go 140 mph. At speed the air does strange stuff to anything moving through it. The salt is not the best surface to get your tires to stick to. So some weight in the right places can keep an old Chevy from thinking that just because it is going fast it is an airplane. If you have enough weight to keep it on the ground you also improve traction. In 2008 we saw a guy fly into the beginning of Mile 3 at a little over 200 mph. I heard later that he died from his injuries.
