1966 Indy Nationals

G/SA Class Winner

'Akron Arlen Vanke'
1963 Plymouth Fury (convertible) 361/265 HP (2-Barrel)

Somebody said it was his 'daily driver car', which had all the
'performance goodies' installed prior to the 66' Nationals.

Won G/SA Class Final with a 14.07 @ 94.33 MPH (on the brakes)
It could run 13.80's @ 100 MPH.

In 1968 not sure who owned it, but this is what it did;
J/SA Class Semi-Finals (Winternationals)
J/SA Class Semi-Finals (Springnationals)
J/SA Class Qualifier (Indy Nationals)

It would be interesting to know some of the other stockers that these drivers had before they moved up the ranks into the super stock & pro classes.

My best friend back then: John Greenwood won AHRA Super Stock National

Championship in 1972. He raced a 65 Belv. Station Wagon with 361 Two

Barrel that ran low 12's. He liked the wagon because it was very comfortable

to sleep in compared to my old 1950 White Ramp Truck. It ended up at Santa

Fe Springs Ecology Center sometime in early 90's.
