    I get PUMPED watching this, and how about that staging duel between Shepherd & Glidden?

    Recall the ’76 Fallnationals when I took the entire family out and we saw Glidden set a new national record at Seattle International Raceways (now Pacific Raceways) with his Fairmount. What a great time we had !
