The start of the 75 NCRA main. Dale Reed led from the pole four 46 of 50 laps. My guess is this might have been Dale's biggest pay day. This was his 2nd Hutch Nationals win and with the same car owner, Evart Isaac.
This track was in excellent condition to greet Aaron Madden returning to the track, after the 74 fire, in which he was severely burned.
This was also Grady Wade's last Hutch National. He would retire from racing soon after this race. It may have been his last race.

Dale & Donna Reed looking like the happy couple they have been for years. Looks like Dale could get back after it, in the #58, #94, #25, #6 and #8 etc. and still fight for the win.

Dale Reed from Wichita in Dodge City's Evart Isaac #6.
The late Willie Wheel Chair on KFDI Radio use to refer to Dale Reed as "I drive anything Dale Reed". Evart Isaac provided the best equipment around so the #6 wasn't just anything.

The great Evart Isaac owned team cars of Dale Reed #6 and Herb Copeland #8 were unbeatable in the late 60's and early 70's.

Dale Reed in 1977 with the Shot Hampton #94. It had been 3 years since Dale had won a major feature, but climbing into the #94 things were about to change.
This was a real sharp looking super always. Heck it looks like it came to the track with Armor-All on the tires. Probably had a coat of wax every week too.
