Just the amount of people needed to run a Pro team these days is astonishing. In the 1960's you had maybe 3 people & they all knew what to do to get the car ready for a run. The car was on an open trailer and all the spare parts you had & fuel, were in the station wagon or pickup. The technology in the '60's was way above the 1950's, but so far away from what we have today. In the early 50's, dragsters had a supercharged Hemi. No one ever thought that same design, all these years later, would knock on the door of 339 MPH in 3 seconds. Same with the timing systems, announcing, score boards, etc etc. Really IS a different world. If I could go back to 1961, San Fernando, and watch the cars, I'd probably think to myself, wow, these things are death traps, cuz I'd know how much safer the cars today are. Still.... just one Sat night at Lions.......
