AHRA had GT-1, GT-2, and GT-3 I believe which were heads up flat out racing classes. This was when Pro Stock was just getting off the ground in 1970 with NHRA. If its not the same guy then forget the previous post. I couldnt find the magazine to verify my brain. Again....Im old.
I have the article

Turns out I won the first two National Events and was runner up at the next two. Also won the championship run off a Beeline at the end of the year because I tied Gary Kimble in points. Back then the tie breaker was race for it.

The jist of the article was how could I have done so much with so little against so much money.

Lots of the Pro Stock teams had three other cars and used the same drivers in one of the three.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane

By the way I am borrowing the money for the Drag Pak

Hope I live long enough to pay it off. If not what's new - LOL

I am going to go out in a blaze of glory

:-) peace
