Hey guys, hope someone on here can help me ID this USAC Mechanic decal that my girlfriend found at and antique shop last year. Does anyone have any recollection of these and what they were used for? Approximate year? Motor Speedway Issued? Any info would be great! Thanks in advance!! Tony

I helped on a USAC sprint car in 1973 and they used that decal then. They also used one just like that, but it said Driver. I still have one of those decals.

Years ago USAC gave these with membership. They had owner, driver, chief mechanic, mechanic and accessory decals.

There was also a decal for the general membership level that either had no designation at the top or may have said member. Can't remember which - old age is a pain in the butt.
