[Fot] Some fun history...

[Brad Eells]

All the Spitfires in the ARRC 1973 F Production Race are as follows - in
order of finish

1. John Kelly
2. Rick Cline
3. Ken Slagle
13. John McCue
DNF: Jim Gammon
DNF: Doug Brown
DNF: Ted Schumacher
DNF: Gary Ouellette
DNF: Joel Bender

Where are they all now? Kelly, Cline, Slagle, Brown, Schumacher cars known
to survive...how about the rest?

Wonder how much horsepower Group 44 got out of that 1500 with a single
Stromberg on it?

Gotta love history! 2023 Cage Match at Road Atlanta??
