OVERWHELMING CROWD

[Thunder6]

Funny thing is Marcisfan, I had a Street Stock in '94 or so (bought it from Dave Melson, who is running his final season this year at Barrie) and it was a well built car, but light years away from the TC we run now. Not even close. Bucket seat, old Chevy rallye rims, gutted doors but that was about it, 305 4bbl... Funny how 14 years can change the sport.

I think the first year of JYD there was no roll bar req'd at all. I helped a friend with building his car. I think we got in trouble for knocking the windows out like that, because the glass would pile in the bottom of the door, and when the door split open at the bottom all of the glass would fly out on the track. I think the rules were 1. Remove the glass 2. Use a marine fuel tank in the trunk.

Incredible now, but that's how it was back then.

my uncle joe (i'm sure most know who he is) once told me "if you can't afford the safety equiptment, you can't afford to race" this is probably the most truthful thing i've heard about racing.
