I raced last year at the new Irwindale 1/8th mile track in the Summit Series, and there was an orange 66 Nova there that shows up nearly every race. i was told that was the old Other Woman car from the 70's, and he drives it on the street. Probably not with the big block and the twin Dominators that I seem to remember.
