Hard to say...maybe not enough youngsters know of Garlits and Malone to go that route.

I'd pick someone a little more 'today', maybe from NASCAR-which seems to be what the manufacturers are more into these days.

I think I read Garlits was just involved in some crate engine Hemi dragster build up thing-and I was drag racing in the 60's so it's not like I don't know who they are and all.

That'd be a little like bringing out a Dick Landy Challenger edition, or Tommy Grove Mustang edition. Wrong era.
