Default Re: Wiley Cossey

Sunday, September 1, 1968

NHRA Indy Nationals

Wiley Cossey captured the SS/B Class Trophy, when his opponent
Ronnie Sox 'Red-Lighted' and left too early on the starting line.

The Pomona, California Drag Racer took an easy Sunday Drive, as
he 'cruised' to the finish line with his 1968 Hemi Barracuda with an
Elapsed Time of {12.30}.

The winning time should not reflect what Wiley Cossey had run previously,
as he ran consistent {10.70's} with his car on both Saturday and Sunday.

Wiley now qualifies as the #1 Super Stock Entrant for the Eliminator
Event to be held on Monday with 32 other Super Stock cars.

Ronnie Sox in the 'Sox & Martin' 68' Hemi Barracuda had previously run
the Low E.T in the SS/B Class at {10.46}, but it appeared that Ronnie
purposely fouled, allowing Wiley Cossey to win the Class.
