200 pounds in 1989 I think. Then Vogler got to looking so good and fast, they eventually took the weight break away----which made the Vogler/Hoffman v6 sprinter even faster! Fuel checks came up okay...

Lloyd, Al Unser from what I hear and mayyyybe AJ tried to run their rear engine cars on dirt just as a trial deal. Lloyd I think tried to qualify for the Hoosier 100 . Didn't work, but he tried.

His dirt credentials on film and in pics will be looked at in a future compilation.

Eventually these tributes will have to venture into Kansas. I'd like to find more film from the 70's to do it.

A roadster midget he built in the early 70's, and it very well could have helped many a US born driver STAY on the road to Indy. Might still could actually....somehow......
