Pomona, 1963   Another early shot - Bakersfield, 1963   Norm Weekly VS Chris Karamesines - Pomona, 1963 Dave Shipman Photo     Without question, one of the wildest and most photographed wheelie shots was of Norm Weekly in the "Frantic 4" A/FD against Don Moody in the "Golden Thing" AA/FD at the 1963 Winternationals. This angle was caught by Bill Turney and unfortunately doesn't show Moody who is in an equally wild power wheel stand. Bill Turney Photo   Same meet different wheel stand. Here Norm Weekly carries the front end for about 500 feet before settling down to low ET of the race.     A great overhead shot of the Frantic 4 car from Fontana in 1963.   From the pages of Popular Hot Rodding in 1963.   Great candid shot of Norm Weekly and engine ace, Jim Fox in 1964.
