WOW, I also think the Vega was cool but the Willys was the deal. As a youngster I would make sure I was at the starting line for C-Ladder it was one hell of a show back then. the wild holeshots and wheelies. Notice everybody on the sidelines plugging their ears! They would push the truck to the line, spray a little juice,call off,fire it up and freakin crank out of the hole!!!What a rush to see as a kid...the blower wheezed the engine roared and of coarse that smell of fuel and rubber........it didnt get much better! .....what a great sport!
