Longtime Pro Modified standout Check Weck jumped in the seat of Mark Pappas’ crowd-favorite "Grumpy's Toy XVI" 1980 Camaro which was originally handled by Bill Jenkins, Ray Allen and Joe Lepone. In match race trim with an original Formula 5000 road racer air scoop, it was one of the top draws of its time. Weck made it to the final before suffering “death by holeshot” courtesy of Ted Peters.

The period-perfect dashboard, inner door panels, dual seats and, (possibly, most importantly), the LenCo clutchless transmission levers mark it as a true Pro Stock of the era.

The big-inch Hemi-powered 1978 Plymouth Arrow of "Smilin' George" Kubis thrilled fans with tremendous burnouts and leaping wheelstands. While its lineage is still being traced, the diminutive machine was originally found in Tennessee; it is rumored to weigh less than two thousand pounds without the driver.
