More pictures received from ts39256

"prior history" or "as found"

ts39256:
I am hoping someone might remember this car from back in the day. The strip photos were taken about 5 years ago at Thunder Valley, Marion, South Dakota, when it had the BBC in it. I`d love to find out about its original owners and crew, and how it did in the Top Fuel wars.

Here is a photo I found on the Web of the Otis Campbell Sugar Cane car out of Boulder Colorado. Draglist shows a Sugar Cane car from 1969 to 1972, with Howard Ditzel as crew chief. Also states the chassis builder as unknown. Looks pretty close to my car, I`d say! Does anybody know more about this car ? It would have been a NHRA division 5 car. Photo by Steve Reyes from his Slingshot Spectacular, the front-engine dragster era book. Thanks, Tommy

Mr Froggy:
Hi Tommy, Maybe give Glenn Rapp a call at 605-336-1515.   He Built (in 1967) and still owns and operates Thunder Valley.  He had a fueler back in the day and for years Thunder Valley had a Div. 5 points meet and until the early 80s ran 3 or 4 Fuel shows each summer besides the points meet.  He knows alot of Div. 5 history!

ts39256:
Thanks Mr. Froggy. I`ll give him a call. I wish I was going to the CHRR at Bakersfield this year, surely someone there would remember this car.
