30 years ago at Indy

They outright killed H/MP, it didn't go to Super Stock or Comp, it was just gone. Cotton said he couldn't move up, and the engine couldn't get enough bigger, or the car enough lighter. He eventually ran an econo dragster for a while. But nothing ever as successful as the Pocket Rocket. We flogged stuff for a short while in C/MP, but it just wasn't working, so it evolved into a bracket and Super Gas car. We ended up with two S/G cars and a S/C dragster, and by 91 or so I was so sick of electronics I quit. I only went to the track with guys I did work for until 95 or so and then even quit that.
