I may have heard about that lead shot "leak". I suppose though, there was more than one car that could've leaked.
The rule change that allowed weight to be bolted on took some of the fun out of it. One reason Mike and I ran the 71 RR (in the mid 90's) was because of all of the great hiding places it had.

Mike was a great guy. We had a lot of fun with him. You are right on the 71 cars. On our 71 Charger B/SA we had 2 hemi cylinder heads wired into the springs of the back seat.
Landy was playing with the 16 plug hemi at the time. I told him we already had 16 plugs. He laughed so hard he almost spit up his tyrolia wine.
