Before we took off when we were in the staging lanes he told me not to be to upset when he beat me but ,, he said you know which car this is don't you. I told him I'd see him at the end. We had a long talk after that race. He was impressed with the car but was also upset he got beat. My car was almost completely stock at that time . Well Almost LOL...
last time I saw the red '64 run it yanked the wheels. Don't recall a time though. What kind of times did you guys lay down that day? What track? Just curious.
