Whatever happened to Steve Green? Heard the story years ago that he drove "da
Grump" crazy when he first showed up at a Nat. Event with the 'Vette. Think Bill wanted
to take it home but Steve wouldn't sell!

Wade...don't know if this matters, but I think there was one...if not a couple of '60 or '61
Corvettes run in Stock Elim...let's say in the last 20-25 yrs. Saw them in Dragster...Not
sure of carb(s)...but think the class was something like L-M-N Stock...could a twin-carb
get down that low?

Not sure of trans either...might have been stick. Weren't record-holders...but were go-
ing a few rounds. The fact that they were out there impressed me...if 230hp...I think
that combo was de-factored (in Stock) once...might have been the reason those cars
were built. Going to say these were Midwest-area racers...but not sure?

I know you're Super Stock...but figured I'd mention this as it was somewhat recent.
Good luck on your build...
