Chief constantly called the Oklahoma cars "Street Cars" (which they are NOT)
That LUTZE's car ? ... that shoebox went 217 mph?
6.90 @ 217 to be precise, while weighing over 3600lbs. About 2 hours after the 6.90 pass, he and his wife jumped in it, untouched and drove it about 150 mile round trip to dinner, with Larson, Joe Barry and a couple other guys. We were in Texas at the time. Went from the track, across the bay to that boardwalk deal where Joe's Crab Shack is. Can't think of the name of the town right now, but sure somebody here knows.........Seabrook TX. Think that's it
