Re: 1967/1968 Dick Harrell funny cars
I wouldn't be too sure those were holes in the valence..More than likely paint..Wouldn't actual holes negate the oversize sheetmetal front spoiler all of these cars ran? The front spoiler I would think would help to keep air from getting under the car and creating unwanted lift. Same reason these cars sat very low on the track. Not to mention the front spoiler might in some way create downforce on the front end to keep nose down and an realtivly even although slightly rear biased weight transfer..
Race cars move around...wasn't ZL1 #1 at one point in TX or Fl?
As everyone can see there are quite a few 1968 cars that are very similar to Tom's car.
Was DH receiving any money or sponsorship from Fred Gibb in 1967 or 1968?
