I mean come on, they had upward of an .10 to .15 hundreths advantage on the field.

Some Indy observations....

GT/AA was certainly cool, newer models and Colin's Mustang was awesome, but might want to consider the high-horsepower 454s (and others) have no place to go.

The Westcott's had SS/AH covered and did anybody notice how far Westcott Sr.'s stick car has came, he is within a whisker of Jr.'s auto car.

SS/JA had the OEM war; a 1979 Aspen wins class, but the trophy could have went to Little's 'Cuda, O'Malley's 'Vette, or Terrell's Camaro

Westcott Sr.'s stick car has come so far that Jr.'s automatic car is for sale; they are building a second stick car for Jr. to drive. Westcott Sr. had a couple of 157 mph runs; if that isn't horsepower I don't know what is.
