I wish I was hundred percent sure on this, but I seem to remember a Gas class Vega called "Bad Lands Meany".Maybe you older Div.5 South Dakota guys could help me.

My first attempt at a Stocker is called "Pipe Dream" Back when I was just getting into racing the ex-wife, decided enough was enough and told me "get this racing thing out of your system, you will never race at those Divisional and National events, so move on to something important, your racing is nothing but a pipe dream ! " Well, many years later, I finally finish the stocker with the pushing of my new wife of almost 10 years now, I tell her the story. She yells " That's it, that's what we will name it, PIPE DREAM" We were looking at pictures in the dragster deciding where to put the name, most of the pictures are of the front of the car. We decided put it on the front fender instead of the door or quarter panel, so if and when it shows up in print, the ex will see it.

My stocker is called," MY KID$ TUITION" compliments of my wife and the price of building the car from scratch. Should have bought one complete.

Back in the late 70's early 80's my dad's SS/AA Barracuda was called "the Carolina FLASH". I can only assume he barrowed that from Butch Leal.
