A Test of Man and Mopar

September of 1971 NASCAR Driver Bobby Isaac made history setting several speed records at the famed Bonneville Salt Flats. In the iconic 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona after the car was banned from NASCAR in 1971, Isaac's car owner Nord Krauskopf with help of USAC decided to give the car a fitting send off. Bobby Isaac and his pit crew led by legendry Crew Chief Harry Hyde set 28 speed records several of which still stand today.

One day I’d love to be as petty as Jim Clark deciding not to lap 2nd place AJ Foyt because that would “rubbing it in” when he won the Tony Bettenhausen 200, at Milwaukee in 1963 even though he led every lap and lapped everyone else, including Dan Gurney in the sister Lotus.

Or the time that he “gracefully” retired from the lead with an oil leak at Trenton because Parnelli Jones had been allowed to beat him at the Indy 500 with one but he needed to show that he was a good boy that would follow the rules even though he hadn’t been black flagged.

“Siempre he creído que el que una carrera dure determinado número de años no se puede sumar esos a los que tienes ahora para saber la fecha de tu graduación, puedes viajar, dejarla en pausa por cuestiones económicas o de salud, prepararte para la vida en otra área como un oficio o trabajo temporal, y todo eso sin contar todos los catedráticos que pueden hacer hasta lo imposible para que no te gradúes, pero bueno, es mi simple opinión”.
