Well here is my interpretation of the 1963 Indy Nationals Tom posted a couple days ago (it takes me a while to keep up!)

Once again if cells are pink or have a (?) that means I guessed at something so corrections / memories welcome.

In S/S, Barker was DQ, probably because he was running a MaxWedge Stage-3 cam that wasn't legal yet. That cam only Gonkulates to a .05 to .10 sec difference, so maybe Barker would have still won or maybe runner-up Ed Martin would have won, giving Ford's LWG its only national win IIRC. But we don't know the r/u ET or MPH so who really knows.

And here is my interpretation of the 1962 Indy Nationals.
I posted this on HAMB and got some good help figuring out that Roberta's El Camino DOES fit class - as a POWERGLIDE. In the lower classes, manual and auto cars were still mixed together!


1962 was quite a year - NHRA allowed women to drive for the first time (really???), and Carol Cox won the 1st female S/SA at Pomona (and then again here at Indy) and Roberta Leighton won the 1st Junior Stock female driver here at Indy. Funny all the times I've gone to the dragstrip with the wife, I cant imagine anybody saying "NO, she cant drive it!".


Ford's new small-block in the new Fairlane was their only class winner!

The driver of the Ed Martin 63 Gal was Don Turner,- source Dennis Kolodiej.

Ed drove his 62 Gal in A/SA. 👍
