Can anyone name this Hemi Dart?
 

Looks like 1969 (based on Landy's Charger it the other lane) at Great Lakes Dragway.

What a really cool pic!! I am envisioning a Saturday night SS race with all of the touring guys of the time: Landy, Sox, Jenkins, etc... and a local Dart is taking on Landy here.

Can someone enlarge it for me?? Thanks!

That is the Hemi Dart from Balzekas Dodge out of Chicago, Illinois.

A 'rival' Dodge Dealership of Grand-Spaulding Dodge.

The track.........Great Lakes Dragaway {Union Grove, Wisconsin} is just North of Chicago, Illinois.

Balzekas Hemi Dart, not to be confused with Larry Griffith's Hemi Dart.

I think the 'above' photo was from sometime in late-May 1969,
and was part of a North-Central Super/Stock Meet that was
usually held before the Springnationals in June.

You can still see the '2' 1969 NHRA Winternational Decals on
the front window of Dick Landy's Charger R/T.

Below......

This was Dick Landy's....... 'Flyin Wedge' which was a
1969 Charger R/T with a 440 Engine, that ran against the
Balzekas Hemi Dart.

In 1969, it was classed in SS/I or SS/IA {9.50 - 9.99 Wt/Hp}
as Dick swiched back and forth with Transmissionsin at
NHRA Events.

In AHRA, Dick would pop on the Fiberglass Hood Scoop 'Hood', and
run different Intake and Carburetor systems.

My memory could be getting weak but I thought SS/H was as low as the classes went until 1972. SS/H was 9.5 and heavier. I remember the charger in E with a hemi, and I saw a photo recently with SS/F on the window but don't know what engine. That would have been 8.5 class
