That looks like an interested Lee Shepherd looking at the front of Harold Martin's car.

Not to start an argument or anything, but could somebody post the first runs by a Pro Stock in the 9's, 8's, and 7's please.

No match race stuff please, NHRA legal setups.

It seems to me that back in the day I read that WJ was the first try the "automatic" shifter transmission but I'm old and the memory ain't what it never was!

I'm sure someone will correct me,, but at the '70 Winternationals,, the first Pro Stock show at a NHRA national event, Bill Jenkins' Camaro went I believe, a 9.98, while Sox and everyone else was still in the 10s,,, as far as 8s go,, Glidden was in his prime, so maybe he did it, and if I recall correctly, the first 7 came after the rules change, to the current setup, 500 c.i. at 2300lbs?,, and I think Frank Iaconio was the first. I'm just going off the top of my head, no research attempted. I'm sure theres a list somewhere.
