I believe the intent and focus of this thread was technology based and not how long a vehicle has been campaigned.

How about Paul Lindberg's 56 Chev. Built initially in 1970 and still running the same pair of WCFBs he bought over the GM parts counter new?

I believe Mike Cotton used to drive his G/SA 1973 Duster on dates with Paula when the car was new.

I did too, similar to the Super Stock thread.
I don't believe Caltracks and split mono-leafs were around in the 70's..or the 80's ,for that matter.
I would say Casey Miles, hands down.

But wait..Is Tom Gould still racing his Corvair?

My dad, Curtis Smith, and his "Hot Stuff" 1967 Chevrolet Camaro have been around for a long time.

Hey Mark. I haven't hung it up yet. I turned 81 in April and just renewed my license for 2 years. I still try to get out at least 2 times a year (Darlington and Rockingham). In 2015, I only made it to the LODRS race at Rockingham. Had the pleasure of meeting Larry there. Had a .000 in the second round and lost in the semi finals to a COPO and a .000. Still just and old guy having fun.

My hats off to you Tom. I hope I can still race at 81. I hope to see you at Rockingham in a few weeks.
