Hope you enjoy.

Is that Tony getting out of his car to flip off the other drive? Pretty ironic considering what happened last time a guy got out to confront Tony. Stay in your damn car!
LIked the Late Model going into the pond also....

Tony and Dan Drinan got together in turn one at IRP. They had a "history" of run-ins in USAC races as they both were fierce competitors. It was a nice little rivalry for a few years.

I've been trying to remember who drove the 3J street stock (the car in the pond) but can't come up with the name. He drove for years. Anyone?

Great film and proof once again you can't go wrong with the surf-rock background music!

Do you remember who played which songs for musical credits?
Yea, the shirtless guy was pretty funny, getting all worked up even for Late Models...

Sorry for the delay and I think following years videos have music credits because I love surf music too.

1. The Ventures-Pedal Pusher
2. The Hustlers-Inertia
3. Lorenzo Smith-Count Down
4. Pyramids-Road Runnah
5. Cornells-Shanghied
6. Revels-Church Key

Thanks Vertigo. I've been following music way longer than sprint cars & have to admit, only group I've heard of is The Ventures..... Youtube here I come!
Lots of great "unknown" bands here in the good ole USA, & I've seen some damn good ones at races too. I wish some more people would dance tho.... one of these days I have to drag one of my dancing girls to a race.... multi-hour drive is the big hurdle!
