I was a gone gosling by the time you got to my old stomping ground. Bob Thompson, Tommy Taylor, and I THINK, Bob Ayers worked Stocker Tech at LIttle Rock, but it was still a 1/4-mile facility, when I left.
Two fatalities in about three years (people running off the end of the short, GRAVEL, shutdown area) probably precipitated that. No such problem at Carlisile... lol!
Vance Hunt used to come up from Dallas and run his Top Fuel car 180mph+, at Little Rock, but never seemed to have a problem, stopping...
