Dear Jim, Funny you should mention 1971, I attended also to watch. I think Jerry Stein won stock that year. I attended at least 7 more times in the eighties. I remember one year maybe 1984 I took my nephew Ron who was 17 years old at the time and had never been on a plane. We had to take a puddle jumper prop plane in a bad storm from Jacksonville to Gainsville. I was so glad when we landed for his sake, the race was postponed that year because of all the rain. Forgot to mention I am in South Carolina right now should be there tomorrow to watch, looking foward to 49 years later. Thanks Joe.

Joe---I was there in 84 never seen so much rain. The ditches had four or five feet in them.

I attended in 1973 with my newly built '65 Plymouth hemi, ss/ba, first time out with new car. Raced off national records then and no breakout in final round but if below existing nat record a new one was established. Old record 10.70 or 80 and Butch Leal won with (ss/ba Hemi) with a 10.34! Obsoleted my car...
