Just in from the '1966' presses.
The last true NHRA 'Junior Stock' championship race.
The World Finals 1966.
Jay Hamilton in a 1958 Pontiac with a 370/338HP running in F/SA,
defeats Bill Abraham in a 1965 Pontiac GTO 389/360HP in B/S.
Jay came back with the same car in 1967, and won again with a
13.85 in E/SA. (Weight/bracket 11.30-11.88) But it was listed as 'Stock Champion', not Jr. Stock Champion.
