In that year, the truck had been given 30 horsepower and the index dropped 1 second ( not a tenth, but 1 full second). So he wrote and requested these forms. He was so pissed off that he didn't race for about a year, but then I remember a talk he had with Stan Perry something to the effect that "it's their ballgame and you can stay mad if you want to, but if you want to do what you truly enjoy doing, just suck it up". Those were not the exact words, but he got the meaning! So we have been racing ever since. We still have all these forms and I will bring them with us to Memphis this weekend if anyone wants to see them. I don't think Larry plans on doing anything with them, but after all these last increases in fees, it just brought back some bad feelings.

Look us up at Memphis if you want to see these.

If I'm not mistaken that truck was capable of going 6 months under the index.Correct me if I'm wrong.
