It seems now there are not a lot of FWD cars left. Some of the FWD cars I saw entered at Indy since 1998 were: Rivera's, Aries wagons, Sundance's, Delta's, Charger's, Escort's, Citation's, Cavalier's. Sunbird's, PT Cruisers, Neon's, and Omni's. I remember my first trip to Indy 15 or so years ago I saw a Dodge Omni driving to the track with decals and NHRA number on the window and a tag on the rear. The coolest has to be Art's mini van. Does anyone have any info or stories about these cars? I sure hope they are still around and didn't get crushed and turned into beer cans.
There's still a couple sitting up here on the hill.
