    Quite an array of name cars, I wonder if this was right before or after the '61 Indy Nationals. I went through it slowly and here's the cars I recognized- Pete Robinson @ 2 minutes, Palmer Lazarus in the green '56 Chevy @ 3:00, Afrons? @ 3:20, Ron Pellegrini in Ivo's twin @ 3:27, Speed Sport III dragster @ 4:12, Bob Sullivan's Pandemonium @ 4:30, Speed Sport roadster @ 4:46, Karamesines @ 5:15, Art Malone @ 5:19, possibly Jess Van Deventer's Modified Roadster @ 5:30, Elverne Pfeifer's Willys @ 7:26, Gabby Bleeker @ 8:08, possibly Shake, Rattle & Run @ 8:19, Karamesines twin, I think Don Maynard drove @ 8:38, Mike Marinoff @ 8:56, Ron Colson in the Studebaker gas coupe @ 9:03, Moody & Jones @ 9:06 and the Greek @ 9:08.
    That is a great find @ttwomotor , thanks for posting it.

    Thought this was a car built for LSR and just being tested at a drag strip. Maybe wrong.

    I think Frakes and Funk in the far lane and definatly Joe Todd of Vincennes Indiana in the near lane. Joe only lives a few blocks from me. Also I was there that day. Joe appears a little behind in the photo but the Chevy,s got there first.

    Ive added a pic of the same car as it was originally campaigned in 1965,66 by Jim Almeter. In 67 it was sold to Vanek in Toronto & painted red becoming the 1/4 mile hustler until 71, He barn stormed all over the US. Hap Gooder owned it from 1973-2016 & restored it back to original. This was the last pic we took with the car after we sold it at Mecum Indy 2016. Now resides in a collection in Pennsylvainia! If anyone has any pics please send them or post, we have very few pics of the 1/4 mile hustler.
    Thanks, Don Miller, Crew

    What do you get when you cross a clown car with a blown Hemi?
