1973 USAC National Championship - Entry List

Entry List

The following cars/career tracks are designated full-time drives for the sixteen race schedule.  Drivers wishing to compete in all the races should select from this list. Certain selections will reflect the career track of a 1973 driver or car, meaning there will be a progression from one particular car or team to another. This should be taken into consideration before making a selection. At most races, open cars will be available as one-off drives for those who are not committed to the entire schedule, but would still like to take part occasionally.  These one-off drives will be announced in individual race threads.

Car selection is free (i.e. first come, first serve), but please note: Full-time drives with red numbers include cars capable of 1000 bhp; the admins reserve the right to withhold them from a driver if they are judged to be too fast for them, or if their simracing level is unknown.

PM Jacob, he may be willing to switch to his second choice. I remember him saying he was very keen on the Dick Simon Eagle Foyt.
