[b] Outcasts Racing Team

These guys were out at Hampton all the time. They would have at least 4 or 5 good running cars every weekend.
The thing I remember most is a car carrier they had. Molded to the roof was about a '66 Charger body - it was the complete interior from the firewall to the back of the rear window. It had the front bucket and a rear seat and 4/5 people would ride up there. It was a real clean job and I believe it had a/c. Wish I had Taken a picture!

That shot was taken in June of 1970 at West Hampton. The car was a 409 - 4 bbl with a 4 spd that was from the Bronx somewhere up near West Chester County. It was always around and ran like hell. That's all I remember, I'll see if I have any other shots - but I don't recall any.

Thanks
Glenn

Hey Verne, that "360 HP" lettered hood on the '61 Biscayne jumped out at me also. It is quite interesting with all the winner stickers on the back windows and the fact that it was still being campaigned nine years later. The car reminds me of the original Old Reliable I that was raced by Jenkins/Strickler out of Ammon R. Smith. I want to say that car was a maroon '61 Biscayne from the same general region. It probably went the way of most old race cars being passed around until they finally just disappear.
