Great video I'd never seen, and it immediately brought back the feelings, sights, and sounds I'd forgotten about when I first went to a drag strip.

I may be wrong, but I'm thinking that the announcer in that short shot inside the tower is a very young Bob Frey.

It very well could be Bob. I know that he was the announcer when I was racing there.

Yes, that's a young Bob Frey.
Still lives here in town. I run into him a couple times a year.

First year attending Indy was 1967 and amazing how the cars advanced in just six years. Sneaky Pete Robinson was one of my first racing heros and great to see his AA win in 1961. Attending the 1968 Indy was most memorable when Dyno Don did his dry hop, he must have had it loaded up because I can still remember the sound. In any case, this 1968 video includes that at the 19:20 mark plus oh so much more…enjoy. And Merry Christmas to all…for our Savior was born not to condemn the world but to save it. Prince of Peace, King of Kings.

Glad to see the guys getting these cars running again.
There are several more to go.
