I always enjoyed listening to how things were back in the day. I like talking to Jim Wilson about when he was racing in his younger days.

Its amazing how different things are but yet how similar a lot of things are. The more things change the more they stay the same.

Wrong Jack. All the high dollar racers had them already. That's why NHRA put the max weigh at 85 pounds. There were no steel belted tires in the junk yards. You had to buy them new. And we couldn't afford one.
