No wonder I like you! I ran a 58 Corvette back in the 60's, C/Gas and ran on the National record at New England Drag way, Sanford ME. 10.20000
Like you, when the fun came abruptly to a halt when they started bracket racing, kind of took all of the fun out of it. I had a 1959 F150 with a tricked 460 cu inch engine that we could have had fun racing. "LittleFoot' would scat too!
