The Briggs Chevrolet - Truppi-Kling SS/EA LS6 Chevelle Ragtop

The "Killer Car" as it was called is shown on the line in 1970 at the first annual "Supernationals" at the Ontario Motor Speedway in Ontario Calif. This was the first time NHRA drag racing was televised live on "ABC Wide World of Sports." Ray Allen killed the competition here as well with a Super Stock victory at this last race of the 1970 season. Allen also lowered his own 11.55 ET record to 11.33 ET on the final winning pass.
