WOW ! That's great !!! Never saw this before.

Pontiac also won A/FX, S/S, S/SA, A/SA, B/SA, C/SA, G/SA.

Lookin with a magnifying glass. may find more good stuff.

Double WOW !! By using the mag glass, I read the caption to a pic that says Don Garlits was driving Connie Kalitta's car. I never heard that before. If that's so, that explains a lot. That page is a gold mine of info !!!

So, am I the last guy here who didn't know Don was driving the Bounty Hunter car at that race ? Did Don drive for Connie at other races ?

TJ is workin on getting some pics off that page, in a form that I can post.
