Jerry Clayton in National Dragster

[Jerry Clayton]

I can tell you some stories , but I didn't drive it---we had a little guy 108 # for a driver--I drove my pro stocker in late 70s early 80s but generally didn't drive too much as airlines said ----make up your mind--wanta fly? or drive?? without flying couldn't have been able to race the fuelers so I flew and built the cars/engines--we held many track records, the NHRA national record, generally was #1 qualifier and had low et/ top speed of the event, won several, got beat some---

Gonna be gone for 2 weeks, will try to find a library to keep up on things

Thanks guys and gals

Jerry

PS--do a search for Keeling & Clayton California Charger and go further down the list than the model shops and you can find some race stories.
