Check out these vintage race programs which coincide with the earlier pix...first one is from the '73 Sam Griffith. These guys did it right!.....crushed velvet covers with gold dividers & tassels, not to mention handicaps, remarks & open calcuttas. Love the remarks for Hanks' # 36....could be the new name of the old Fayva Cig if H20boater gets off his wallet!?

I believe this was the first time the Michigan Boys went on the offensive and tangled with the OPBRA bunch in the P classes.....

Interesting that stern of Cigarette / Cary? to the right. Very probable that deal with a former Black Tornado.
Just in the 1973 runs a 32' ex BT driven by Mark Raymond....

I thought that stern may get some attention to what it might be.
