I have match raced this car (63 Tempest in post # 261) several times at Norwalk in the last couple of Tri-Power Nats. It is owed by a doctor and he has a friend drive it for him. To my understanding I believe it's a clone built by the same guy who did Arnie's Tempest wagon. The one Arnie made a pass in several years ago. Funny story with the last match I had with it. The driver was told we were runing on a Pro tree. He was instructed to leave on the first yellow bulb....HE DID....they first STAGE light !! In his defense he had never ran a Pro Tree.
Made me feel a little goofy though....watching him leave before I even staged ..
He always beat me..I may have a surprise if it happens again,
