April 11, 1968 (Hayward, California)
Chrysler Performance announced that '9' Super Car Clinic Teams
will be parading dealerships with their new 1968 Hemi Super/Stock
Drag Race Cars.
* Sox & Martin
* Ed Miller
* Arlon Vanke
Have already started the clinics around their local areas.The initial buzz
is that these specially built 1968 Hemi Barracuda's are 6/10's of a second
quicker in the quarter-mile than the already dominant 1965 Super/Stock Plymouth and
Dodge cars campaigning now.
Sox & Martin have been performing their Super Car Clinics since January 1968, with their
new 1968 Plymouth 440 GTX, which runs at 116 MPH while campaigning in the NHRA
SS/F class.
The team also has a new 1968 426 Hemi Road Runner with a fiberglass front-end, that
runs in the AHRA S/S Experimental Class. The Road Runner is capable of reaching 134 MPH
in the Quarter-Mile, and with Elapsed Times of 10.60.
