same here Downey44, I remember the yellow 70 driven by Dick and the orange 71 was driven regularly by Mike Smith for a while. I also remember another night when Ross Smith drove the 71 and got by Dick Gaines on the last lap of the feature (not for the win but 2nd or 3rd). Dick did not appreciate getting beat by the orange 71 at all.

Dorset and Graybeal drove an orange car for Jim Walton, can't remember the car number (63?). Do remember Jim , big guy would like to fight when things were not going good.
Nordhorn and Kinser, white cars with red numbers 52, 53 were always fast and put on a good show. The burg also ran twin 75 lappers. I practicly grew up down there.
