If you had spectated with me at the '61 Indy drag nationals, you'd have yet another reason to run the 3-speed. I have an indelible mental image of Hayden Proffitt launching his [or Mickey's?] aluminum-front-end 421 Catalina with the H-D 3-speed. Awesome!

Oops- No 421 in 1961! So much for my keen memory...
