I was immediately struck by how many cars were from the current model year. I didn't count, but it looked like a majority were new cars. I only spotted four entries that were more than 10 years old.

Also, the article claimed spectator attendance over 120,000.

I was impressed with the physical size of the straight Buick motor in Pete Shadinger's D/Dragster. That looked to be the size of a Cummins diesel. In later years he ran 240/300 Ford six engines.

I am just a observer here, BUT is there any link between the number of current model cars entered and the attendance. Could this work today?
