In my notes the photo is from the 7/27/73 National Dragster Pg36. Are you sure about Preston winning the 73 race? Preston did win the World Championship that year with his win at the World Finals(I think or another VW machine).
Didn't Preston win the WCS at MN Dragway that was moved because Cornhusker was closing?Cornhusker was going to have two that year. I think Preston then was Div 5 pts leader and the Groves went to a Div 4 race and made the finals or semi's and won the Division.
Hey I was only 6 years old at the time so you may know more about all that.
