Yes Dale, just for a year or so at the end of Jimmy Carter's run. The dollar value dropped in relation to the mark and yen, plus around 18-20 percent inflation and another gasoline shortage. Costs to race soared. APBA members dropped like flies and APBA had to go to cheap paper and bimonthly editions along with other changes in order to help stabilize the organization. Probably had to cut staff that put together the Propeller. Don't remember all the details. I will go check what I have, because you would not necessarily know what you don't have.
