Div 4 Race in Belle Rose, LA

In Stock, Devon Dioguardi was #21 in the Mission Garage '74 SD455 T/A. Todd Kuhn was #49. Todd is listed driving a '71 GTO. I think that's a misprint. He's been driving a '70 GTO for quite a few years.

Div 7

According to NHRA Live Timing, in the 1st race of the doubleheader, Brad Burton was the Stock Elim winner !

Cut a .005 light & ran 10.734 on a 10.73 dial. That's some pretty good final round driving.

He also won the 2nd race, to complete the doubleheader sweep !

Vegas 4-Wide Nats

Brad got what I call a 3rd place finish at this race. He's had a pretty good year, so far.

Need some help with this one.

On a FB site I'm trying to find out what was the quickest legal 1969 GTO NHRA Stock Elim car, ever.

Found a '70 nat record list showing that the "Nemesis" Judge held the E/SA record in the 11.90's.

So, does anybody here have proof of one that ran quicker ? If so, please post all the info you have for the car.

Also, I'm trying to find out what was the last quick legal '69 GTO NHRA Stocker to be on active racing duty ?

Nowadays, the '69 has a good NHRA hp factor for the 350hp 400 engine, @ 325. But, for many years prior to the reduction, the '69 GTO engine factors were too high for the combo to be competitive.

Therefore, I haven't run across a single '69 GTO Stocker that was still competitive, after the early '70's. So, who remembers a competitive '69 GTO Stocker, that was still active in the '80's ? How 'bout the late '70's ?

Would appreciate all the help I can get on this !
