A/MP Record Holder.

[BlueOval Ralph]

Sherrill Huff was from Kentucky, the guy you are thinking about was Terry Sherrill from Washington area last year for Mod was 81. Barrett was from Div 3 the younger brother of Marty Barrett Div 3 tech director. Rick had a C/Gas Pinto latter built a 351 C powered Mercury Capria the one from Eroupe wrecked a short time later at Edgewater Park Div 3 track in late 70's

I stand corrected Terry Sherrill from Ore. ran a 57 vette in A/MP then later in SS/AM, I believe the car crashed. The last year for mod. was 81 they had a tribute to the class at Indy.Did the capri run in A/MP. gsa612

That's the guy...Terry Sherrill. NOT sure if he was the last A/MP record holder...but
remember seeing the name on the records page many years ago.

Thought that Barrett usually ran B/G...or C/G.

Sherrill Huff was a tough Modified competitior from Kentucky...and might have owned
and managed the Ohio Valley Raceway near Louisville. Maybe he still does?

Anybody know who the last G/MP record holder was...and what was the E.T. ?

Bob Frey would know the answer to that one...

Barrett did run gas class mostly C/G with Pinto but Built Capri after he sold Pinto.

Found a copy of the March 79 copy of SSDI mag. There is a 4 page article on the Barrett 73 capri running A/MP. It shows Lambeck with the record at 9.27 in mid 79. gsa612

The Capri ran A/MP in this pic although hard to see.

[amp vette]

Dave Hughes had the record at 8.78 in I believe 1985. He retired the car and I bought it from Dave in 1987 minus engine. I ran in comp in A/MP before NHRA dropped Modified and ran it in B/G before they dropped Gas forcing me to run in to E/A. Harold Stout ran a Firebird in A/MP in 1988 and he might have lowered the record. By the way, this Vette which I still own is Tony Feil then Joey Heffiermen Sr.former cars.
