Notes: John Albright constructed the tubular chassis. The car originally used a steel body in '65, but for '66, a fiberglass body with working doors was used. Reyes was at LaPlace for a best of five match against Leonard Hughes early in the season. Larry won three straight and reset the track record with an 8.97/162.74. In April, Reyes was at Lakeland for a best two out of three match race against Don Gay. He set a 9.02 track record in the first race, but he wasted it with a foul start, giving Gay the win. To make matters worse, he also lost the second race, giving the match to Gay. The two had a rematch on May 1 at Aquasco. Once again, Reyes had problems when he lost a rear end in the first round. In the second race, he ran a 9.48/149.75 that lost to Don's 9.32/152. That gave Don the match race win. It was a while later, but on July 23, Reyes could take one back at Houston. He was racing Roy Gay, and in the first race, Larry's 9.61/146.81 beat a crossed-up Roy. The Pontiac's transmission let go in the second race, and Reyes took the match with a 9.55/140. Early in July, he was at Old Dominion Speedway for a best of three against Bobby Woods blown Chevelle. Woods surprised him in their first race, where the Chevy won with a 6.22. But Reyes came back to win the next two races and the match with a 5.92 best. Larry had an 8.16 best for '66. |
