Back around 75 there was a heads up class at National Speedway called Pro Am and a similar one at Hampton Raceway called Run Tuff. They were both Lbs per Ci, and they were both short lived as only the top engine builders or money bags could compete. I remember it being announced over the PA at Hampton that Dino Ramirez had a set of heads for sale at 2800 dollars, (probably not the good ones), that was more than than half of my yearly take home salary back then and I bracket raced successfully 2-4 days a week at both tracks at that time. It was a great class, like a local Pro Stock but like most, I had a better chance of seeing God than competing.
