This is some 1970 video from Tri City Speedway. It has the trophy dash race and unfortunately, I don't remember the guys who are fighting for the lead. I think the purple car may have been Eddie Leavitt. At the start of the clip, you can see Bubby Jones in the yellow #B4 coming out onto the half mile and a bit later Dick Sutcliffe in the R&H black #40.

This is a clip from Tri City in 1968. They were running super modifieds back then and there weren't many sprints around. The beginning of the clip shows Wib Spalding in his USAC sprint car #444 getting pushed off. He used to come out to the track then and warm the car up, but didn't race at Tri City until after he quit running with USAC. I think he ended up third in USAC points that year and I wish he was in the Sprint Car Hall of Fame.
