- NASCAR's
Wild Years: Stock Car Technology in the 1960's
-
Stock car racing in the 1960s featured intense behind the scenes
battles between the factories, rules makers, track owners, promoters,
and racing teams. Everyone was trying to keep up with the rapid
year-to-year changes that brought more cubic inches, more horsepower,
smoother shapes, and faster cars. The fans were the beneficiary
as they were treated to incredible competition and incredible
race cars. The '60s were a sensational era of stock car racing
that will never be seen again. Factory engineers produced wild
and powerful stock cars that raced in shootouts from Southern
dirt and small ovals to bigger and bigger super-speedways. The
racer's edge sought by each factory led one small team after another
to pack up and pull out. This was the era of back-door racer support
from General Motors, Ford's "Total Performance" agenda
to win everything, and Chrysler's fantastic Hemi-powered stockers.
Special racing engines and exotic prototypes with advanced concepts
that never saw the light of day all added up to fantastic drama
and incredible racing, all told in these pages.
