I had the great privilege to be befriended and mentored by a gentleman who was around for those days (held an NHRA record) and continued to build and race as long as he could.

Yes they did. When I lived in Indianapolis there used to be a guy that would show up at the drags with his race bike. He had merged two of the old Kawa 750 two strokes together. That thing would scream going down the track, from behind all you could see was expansion chambers, it was bad A$$.
