2013 at the Clay City Slant Six race. Had just completed a full frame off restro on the 83 D150, did not have 25 miles on the truck when I left Indy for Clay City.
And, the 83 was never intended to be a drag racer, it was set up to be the tow vehicle for the '68 Barracuda. But the Barracuda was not done yet, so you run what you got.
As luck would have it I drew Team Green and their 10 second slant six Lancer in the first round. Rusty spotted me 10 seconds in the quarter. I was at the halfway point on the strip, before that Green Lancer left. And they got me,,, LOL
Blew by me at the line like I was setting still.
