Wonder if that's still going on at "The Railhead"?????????

In the very early '70's the Army created the Army Racing team which was headed by a Lt. and the cars were driven by enlisted men. I believe the cars were their own but competition money and parts were furnished by the Army and sponsors. They raced in various classes and ran the NHRA circuit. It ended in '74 or '75....not sure on the exact dates. The team was stationed at Ft.Hood.
