ON THE COVER Artis Houston's goin' places, which means his faithful think tank/crew is going along with him.  Like his highly motivated friends, Artis is a working man with a wife and kids, so tugging the Nova from L.A. to Orlando and back isn't high on the list of favorite cars, but gets done regardless.

That's how it is with this crew. Artis shows gratitude and puts the big-block mule on its heels! Image by intrepid photo-cat Henry D. at California Speedway (Fontana, CA).
