Agreed! Somebody correct me if I’m wrong but this is probably when the gassers has to be a street legal car?? Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
No, not really. They just had to have all the street equipment. In the early 60's, about 60-70 percent of the cars at the track where tri 5 Chevies. All different classes and configurations.
This particular 55 is featured in this month’s OSR magazine. Seems it was inspired by Roth’s 55, as well as the cars from American Graffiti and Two Lane Blacktop. It’s owned by a cat named Hollywood Hank. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app

It was located in Somerset, KY. Some of the old racers now run the Somernites Cruise. Track shut down in the early 70s. My Uncle ran there for years and several of the guys I knew growing up like Dean Mink, Lonnie Dillingham, Larry Barnett etc. Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
