Thanks so much for uploading this....I'm always trying to just get a glimpse of my grandfather's car he owned the car that won the 1975 USAC national championship with Larry Dickson driving..I've been to Terre Haute....Eldora and many other tracks when I was a kid......Great memories!
I remember when I was about 11 years old my dad cotton and I stopped by Jim's house to say hi and he was finishing up on a indy car for the 500 not to often do you get to see that. But in my dad and Jim's world it was natural. 🤠
Opperman...........kinda a sad story, great driver in his prime .one of those guys that should have gotten out when the get-ten was good ,sad what became of him

Terre Haute, Indiana, Vigo County Fairgrounds. WOW!!!! Tony Stewart would race two races in one day. Great memories. Great drag strip there too.
And people think drifting is new. I don't think so this is original drifting
Robby Golden this is infinitely better than drifting
Drifting is not racing. Its not a race. Apples and oranges.
you wouldn't want to crash in those things
my husband raced these in the 50's and early 60's in MI....
