the pictures of the sox and martin cuda running b gas at indy in 1969 and then don carlton driving the same car in pro stock at the winters in 1970, the first year for the new class. i do believe this was the little thumper cuda that s/m bought from carlton. also one reason s/m ran b/ gas at indy with injectors instead of carbs is for an advantage as jenkins and schartman were also in b/gas along with jim zakia who won the class.they were running
to showcase pro stock for the next year for nhra and fans. this was the same year as mini class runs to determine the class winners in s/s. as a young 18
year old i was at indy and saw this first hand.
