It has long been considered a good accomplishment to win your class at the US Nationals, if there is more than 1 car in your class. For those who might be interested, but don't wanna take time to look 'em all up, here is a list of some class winners, & links to that info. The oldest records I see posted on Drag Race Central are from 1998. If anybody knows how I can find more records, online, please post that info.

In 1998, Bob Michael was M/SA class winner at Indy, in a '78 T/A.

In 2000, Pontiac power won K/SA, L/SA, & N/SA.

2013: We picked up D/SA, F/SA, G/SA, & N/SA.

2014: Mike Morgan won K/SA, again.

2015: Michael Brand won G/SA, with his '73 Bird. In lots of these years Pontiacs also picked up some RU positions, in class. When there are several cars in that class, an RU at Indy is sort of a big deal.

2016: Michael Brand picked up F/SA this time.

Had several RU's in 2017 & 2019.
