My friend, Johnny Labbous, won Pro Street class at Bristol in 1978 and 1979, driving his SS/CA Plymouth. This car was the ex-"Honking Hemi", owned by Billy Orr from Alabama. The car wasn't quick enough to qualify in super stock so he ran it in IHRA's quick 32 class called Pro Street. That's me, squatted in the front row with a white t-shirt.
The second photo shows Johnny Labbous at the wheel of Al Mahoney's B/A Hemi roadster, at Bristol in 79.
Good times! Wayne.
