Tim when I started going to the burg we'd have two heats and a fast car dash. and the feature most nights that I can remember. wasn't until the 80s where we'd get some 30 plus. Then wings went way of do-do and we were in low teens at best till they took wings off.
Don't know about USAC, Staab said he tried to make turkey nght several times and they qualified. if you didn't make the show, you didn't make it.
