OK, I went to that thread & found the records list. Split it into stick & auto sections & enlarged 'em. You can click on the thumbnails & see 'em.

In the auto section, there's an E/SA '69 Pontiac. Jerry Stealy had the "Nemesis" RAIV powered Judge. IIRC, it was later in a towing accident. He swapped the running gear over to a wagon.

In the stick section, there's an H/S '70 Pontiac listed. Rod Kister had the "Big Iron" cars. The '70 was a black Judge. It apparently had a D-port engine, since it was in a lower class. Don't think a RAIV engine could run that low a class.

Pic #5 is of an O/S '61 wagon. It MAY be the one listed on the Indy class winners list. There was also a RAIV '70.5 Bird on that list. The driver name didn't ring a bell. But that 1946 number is on a Garber Pontiac E/S Bird, in pic #6.
