I have scanned the Indy program from 1969 for John.
Anyone else want a copy of the entry list ?
E-mail me....

FYI:
Winners were:
TF Snake
FC Danny Ongais
TG D.A. Santucci
Super Elim George Montgomery
Comp Terry Fritsch
Street Glen Self
SS Ronnie Sox
Stock Bill Morgan-Pete Tritak
1969 was the yr of my accident, Ruth took me so we wouldn't miss a Indy {62-04}Nationals.We drove 1/2 way & stoped for the night, went into the pits and she pushed me around in a wheelchair just to say I went to Indy.
I wanted to race Indy bad, so after 2 more left leg operationals we bought a 68 Camaro and ran in 72. It wasn't fast but I got to run Indy, it's the same car we restored in 07 and go to cruise ins now.

Been slowly goin back thru these old threads to see what I can find. Didn't know how many pages of threads were included in this section. So, I clicked on the last page, to find out.

Most of the names & cars on this site, I never heard of. But, when I looked at the names on the '69 Indy winners list, I immediately recognized the name Glen Self. He's listed as winning Street. Don't have a clue what car he was driving.

BUT, when we 1st saw him race, he was driving a straight 6 powered 1st gen Canaro, in the Modified Production class. It was named "Stormin Six". It had a real strange sound. But it would scream ! He ran out of our div 4. The car was a nat record holder. Probably set & reset records many times.

I'm posting a pic here from the IHRA paper. It shows pics of the winners & RU's at the IHRA points race held in Tyler Texas, in the Summer of 1978.

Glen was the winner of Modified. The pic right under his, is my girlfriend(now wife) who won the bracket category, which they called Pro Street, with her Pontiac powered '68 Bird.

It's been a long time, but I remember that race & the Stormin Six !

I posted what I have for the 1969 Indy Nationals over on this thread:

https://classracer.com/classforum/sh...t=62802&page=4

I dont know how to post the JPEGS again here so you'll need to go to the other thread for them and a small narrative.

Still some guesses. Working on it.
