Hey, there's mud on the wall, must be the lighting! What the hell is that they have on top of the roll cages?

I was pretty sure it was one of them but for some reason was thinking that Joey was in that car early in 84,,, Oh well,,, what was it again that goes first when you get older??? LOL

Brian

And Rickey Hood is still running, and winning. I just saw him race (non wing) at Canyon Speedway on March 27th of this year, and I'm looking forward to seeing him again.


Half the lies they tell about me aren't true.

Sure didn't use near the wing angle back then,some of those nose wings look like they would be directing the air under the top wing instead of to the top of it.

Chilly, how do you know this stuff? You couldn't have been more than a toddler in 1984?

They ran a 3a for a while as well. Who ran that?


Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3 
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?
