Wow. I would have thought more than 1

But that's good to know if I get my block fixed and get it running a second under again

Last time at Indy was Sept 1972 It has changed since then. Leaving for Sonoma next week for the double that place is fast.
The entries are trickling in now; but, by the beginning of August, they will be pouring in. Stock and Super Stock will hit the 180 quota and with the usual last minute withdrawals, there will be 165 - 170 cars in each class. Indy is still the biggest and best drag race in the world!

Tops falling off the girls in the wet T shirt contest didn’t help either....Kudos to the farmer who made his field available for this get together....

21 SS/LA cars for class in 1979. Class winner got to play in the Super Stock eliminator and all others (including myself got to go home early). Still think it should be that way. First experience was in 74 in stock and didn't make it through Class tear down in the barn. lol
