Reminds me of stock racing back in the day - at Hinton in '69 we had 48 A Stock hydros show up, 4 elim heats. Since the National Champ and Divisional winners were already qualified, youo had to get a 1st or 2nd to make the final. I got a 3rd. So droeve 2000 miles to run two heats. I did get my nuts painted though. (Alternates got the block nuts painted so you couldn't work on the engine - for those who were thinking otherwise).Quote:
