I think this is really cool. I remember back in the late 90's when I was running NMCA and Arlen Vanke came to a few races running a 65 NSS Hemi car. He brought a lot of exposure and interest to the class, and I don't think that he has near the following that Garlits does. There I was in my early 20's getting to race against a living legend. I still remember, raced him twice and he went red against me both times. Maybe it is silly, but I will always remember that. I am sure that a lot of people will get to experience a similiar feeling this coming year. Will be fun to watch.
