They held what I say was a forerunner to the combos of today. It is still in operation, since about 1978, they went to bracket racing only.

It was the "money" class, consisted of all the stock, superstock, modifieds, gassers, altereds, ect. In those days, all ran off their national records, that was your index.

Keep it up Tom, I enjoy taking these little trips back to the past.
