It was pretty amazing that the first five races were won by five different teams and neither HMS nor JGR were one of them.

 

[Team Penske]

But did they supply the winning teams with equipment or feed back?

The first a piece of hardware comprised of several metal components welded and/or bolted to the chassis.

The second is the point around which the car rolls under horizontal load. At the rear on Cup cars, it can be adjusted by raising / lowering the track bar mounting point(s).

I'm having a tough time reading your post with all the glare coming from all these Lombardi Trophies. Oh well, I'm sure it was all just nonsense anyhow.

Probably 1970 for me? Had a cousin that was really good at this stuff. Detailed/painted everything. I didn't have his patience. Wanted it done. Guess i was working flat-rate at 12 years old...
