Is that even Ron Mancini's signature? The second 9 in 1969 looks suspect. Thought he ran the 1964 in SS/DA class and it was Dallas when the trans blew?
All the info and signature is bogus, and the neutral drop thing gets perpetuated because it sounds “cool”.
What's the deal with neutral starts in the 1960's? Was it ever a common strategy at the drag strip? I have never ever heard anyone proclaim they were a good idea or common. Until now...
