Great pics Doug,
What I find amazing is that in that pic of the 201 mph run is that the car does not look stressed at all! Not much body roll, tires do not appear to be begging for mercy, heck the wing does not look to be deflecting much at all!
I realize the physics of a car negotiating a turn on the high banks redirects some of the lateral forces downward but still wow!

This is the 201 mph run at Talladega in November 1970.



How do you know?  Can you see the missing roof rails?

If I didn't know better, it looks photo shopped!  The radius appears extreme!
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

I recall when I was at Texas Motor Speedway during my MotorTrend Classic photoshoot, I attained speeds over 125mph and the car didn't seem to give a darn. I mean, I was stressing out physically more than my car. I got to the point after many passes at that speed I would let go of the steering wheel in turns 1 and 2. The car seem to know exactly where to go............ and that was on street production suspension........ I was truly amazed and astonished how the car handled at those speeds on that banking...

If I didn't know better, it looks photo shopped!  The radius appears extreme!

The corner radius is probably the depth of field of the camera shooting way down into turn one.     I've seen that photo somewhere before, perhaps down at ISC.  (flipped through a LOT of pics in 2 hours)   If it is not the 201 run, it is still taken at Talladega.    You can tell by the blackness of the still new asphalt.    

It's hard to tell from the photo whether the car has the same fuel vent and rear window trim treatment that we believe the 201 mph car had.

I think the photo is made up. Look at the white stripes...
They look like the "corrrecton tape" used back then, and even today.
They don't look applied like they are real and following the track radius.
And they are different lengths!
If you look through the windshield, the track surface is different!

Car looks too big for the radius.  If someone told me the high banks of Bristol, perhaps I'd buy that.

I agree - have seen it someplace in the past... In a race program maybe?   :shruggy:

IMO - this is a touched up photo. 
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Aero426

That is true.  Pics in the past were touched up by hand for publication.
