Thanx Terry and Rex for the clarity. I remember bits and pieces from that time. Have the 91 tour on tape but the case of the tape is broken.
I do remember. GOOD TIMES!
And yes, I remember Frankie and Leland getting together at Union County. Man did Frankie every get a booing. It was his first wingless win. Also at that race, I thought Billy boat (Bromme #6?) was going to be pinched between another car and the wall on the backstretch. One of the neatest moves I ever seen as he pitched the car sideways, Dove under that car and passed him going into three. (Had to see it to believe it)
Chuck, one who is glad this thread was hijacked. Like I said, Sprintweek is great. CRA tours were fantastic! I kinda liken it to when USAC goes out to Perris and the west in Nov. But thats just three or four races. Not ten.
PS. Weren't one of these races held at Attica? I remember going there for one where I talked to MClure about the car they were racing (Mid cage downtube)
Also I wasn't there but on my tape. Sammy came out to try I think at Grand Forks???? Flipped it in qualifying. It was in the Annett car. Not sure if it was the independant suspension car. But he flipped down the straight after the car started bobbling.
