get OUTTA here, CharlieS, you were at Montgomery back then?
My family is from Cormwall and before we went drag racing we went to Mongomery to watch road racing. We saw Dan Gurney in a birdcage there and Lance Reventlow with the fabulous Scarabs. I even wrote a newspaper article back in '65 or '66 lobbying for interest in making Montgomery a permanent track. (Although it was only published in the Cornwall Local!)
That was when the drags were sanctioned by NASCAR, and the rule book was a single piece of paper, type written on both sides. :lol:

They had a couple of road races, up there the years I raced, also.
Wally Dallenback (of indy car fame) raced there with a Buick powered rear engine dragster, called the Candy Cane Special
