JUC_057_Vic Edelbrock '40
Vic Edelbrock's Deuce in 1940. Vic ran five S.C.T.A. lakes meets that year and we are not sure which meet we’re looking at in this shot. At the May 19 running he ran Arco Heads and ran four times, the fastest being 119.44 mph. At the June 30 meet the engine was listed as an Edelbrock V8 so we might assume that he is running a set of his own heads. We have him turning 118 mph. At the August event, his fastest run was 117.34 mph. In October he ran 118.75 mph and at the last meet of the year in November the fastest of his three runs was 119.52 mph.
