I wasn't there but the pick I have seen with friends posing on the car it looks to me like its the old gordge hot rod. In fact the dents in the siderail make it look like its been used in the past.

It was at the 30th Anniversary Dinner and at the track - certainly not the new one, although it looked new parked next to Bruce's 1971 Tank ;D

I was secretly hoping that each of the two cars were there to lead the Panthers and Tigers respectively onto the track for the final ;D
Craig's new car might just make it for the end of the season but that's marginal. The current 7N is entered in the SI superstocks and will be raced again this season with either Craig or Nick at the wheel.

It's around. Craig has voiced some low key interest in getting it back but that's not happened so far.

It was my nephews first teams champs and I was trying to explain to him that this hot rod was part of the speedway museum as it was old and had a lot of history. He though I was taking the piss, "old, museum!?"
