Somewhere i have a photo of the car in the infield and the valves covers were missing and the rocker studs were even bent backward. The larry and gary show at dayton was some of the scariest side by side racing you will ever see. Plus it also was always a question whether or not sonny ates was going to break the world half mile record in the iddings 93. He just kept trading it back forth between winchester and dayton. Those were great times and fond memories.
