Let us not forget the 1963 Pontiac station wagon of Jack Mullins from Helena, Arkansas. Jack's SS/U 4-speed wagon was the thorn in NHRA's side when they switched over to index racing with no breakout in the mid-70's. That type racing only lasted 2 years thanks to racers like Jack. He knew how to play the game and only ran fast enough to keep ahead of his index. Finally NHRA gave up, changed back to a breakout and Stock/SS racing was saved from extinction.
