Another great nomination for the Novis.
In the early 60s the Novi V8 powered Indy cars had about twice the HP of anythng else on the track.
I fondly remember the Novi accelerating out of turn 4 at 150 MPH or so, blue smoke rolling off of the front tires, blasting past anything on the track down the front straight, only to be passed by the lighter and more nimble Offys in turns one and and two.
The scenario would be repeated on the back straight, lap after lap until the Novi driver stayed on the throttle a bit too long and hit the wall.
Imdy racing, like (and especially) NASCAR has morphed into little more than slot car racing. I have no interest in either anymore.
