Competing in more than 30 events, he won several driving big-bore ‘A’
production while establishing a record of high-place finishes. In 1971
and 1973, Polley also raced in sprint car competition, winning nine of
the 33 races entered. In 1974, he became associated with professional
Formula 5000 teams in the capacity of test and development driver for
