papajohn97 Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 In researching sixties super stock drag cars, I keep seeing these on the windshields on some reference photos: Any ideas what they mean? ‘T’ for tech inspection? ‘E’ for eliminations? I have decals for these but would like to know what they mean before I put them on any builds. I welcome experts opinion on this and, lacking that, logical speculation. Much thanks!
R. Thorne Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 T for trophy (class finalist). E for Eliminator. Couple of mine from the 70’s at Indy. 2
papajohn97 Posted February 11, 2022 Author Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) Cool! Thank you Ron! I knew there would likely be a subject matter expert with direct knowledge about these stickers on this board. I’m planning to model Shirley Shahan’s ‘65 Hemi Plymouth SS/A Drag-On-Lady and wanted to include these stickers on the windshield. So what were you driving and winning with in ‘78?

R. Thorne Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 This is my less than average build of that car that started me on this model car journey about 4 years ago. 2 1
4mula1fan Posted February 12, 2022 Posted February 12, 2022 Awesome Ron! I was there and probably watched you run! I absolutely loved the S/S classes.
4mula1fan Posted February 12, 2022 Posted February 12, 2022 We also camped at the Clermont Lions Club park... We'll not talk about that... LOL!
R. Thorne Posted February 12, 2022 Posted February 12, 2022 Stayed there, also. Atmosphere at night was a tad noisy and boisterous at times. The food there was awesome and the people that worked there were wonderful.
