IIRC, I think Tom Haner in the ex-Lambeck 68 Barracuda had it at 9.01 at some point, not sure if he was the last.

Barretts Capri can be seen in the background of this picture. It was at the Cajun Nationals seen here running A/MP.

Why did the N.H.R.A. ever get rid of modified production class?
This was some of the best racing I ever saw and I could never figure out why they got rid of it. Jimbo |

Many don't understand why they got rid of Modified Eliminator. Plenty of cars. More than Comp, which they kept.

I am almost certain that Dave Hughes was the first A/MP car in the 8s with his '58 Corvette. I seem to remember National Dragster making mention of it during coverage of Indy one year. Not sure if Dave was the last record holder, but I know he held it on numerous occasions.

![]() I was at the Edgewater points race when Rick crashed the Capri. Something was broken in the stearing as I remember the front wheels toeing out during his wheel stand and on the 1-2 shift. The cat took a hard left off the track past the finish line & hit a Gas class Vega that was coming up the return road (before the days of full length concrete walls). I have a picture of the Vega somewhere, I'll post it when I find it. I am pretty sure no one was hurt. |
