Jack won the $800. at Bowling Green back in the early 70s .That would be like winning 8K now!!

You said it . What about the National Event pay-out ?

Mike Delahanty · 10-31-2012, 11:59 AM

Based on inflation:

$800 of 1970 dollars would be worth: $4,733.73 in 2012

$800 of 2012 dollars would be worth $135.20 in 1970

Lew, now that's a name I haven't heard or seen him since the early 70's....What ever happen to Dempsey? frank

Frank,

During my miss-spent youth in Fort Lauderdale, I worked for some time as a "gofer" for a guy who ran an old Willie Rells-built Pro Stock Firebird. Of what little I remember of that experience, I think Dempsey was a consultant on the project, at least at the beginning. He was definitely a legend in that part of South Florida, but it's been a long time since I've seen or heard from him.
