That's the Car Rick! I remember it had power windows and a Ton of options. I believe they raced it since it was Brand New. Thanks for posting the pictures, it brings back a lot of memories especially the Motor Sport Research name on the front fender. Bill

I raced my '70 SS 454 Chevelle out at TC a number of times a summer thru the seventies, but I have a hard time remembering most of the guys and cars. There is an fb page for Twin City Dragstrip, if you are interested in seeing more pics. Some of the cars I recognize. My car MAY be in one pic in the tower lane, but it's hard to know for sure, as the pic is from the fence and mostly of the other car.

RKE and the piston just in front of the rear wheel well is from Ronnie Kaplan
He was a helluva wrench and great guy!

I wonder if there's an SS427 hood lurking in the Santanella garage

They put a cowl induction style hood on the car, cool.

Is that one of the cars that was at MCACN last year?

To my knowledge, the car has never been out of MN.
