Back in about 1973, while at NASA Apollo, I raced my 1965 Pontiac GTO 4-speed at the now non-existent "Houston International Raceway" in Dickinson, TX. This was located right behind the Gay Pontiac dealership off the freeway.
One day, Don Gay showed up with his funny car and I talked to his wrench James Osteen for a while. By that time, the Funny Car had a Hemi in it although initially it had a RAV Pontiac. Osteen said they couldn't get the RAV to be competitive.
Those were the days.
