Re: Cornhusker Raceway Park
I have some questions for us "Old timers".....does anyone remember Chuck Cervani (serve-an-e) from South Omaha. He had a garage....I believe it was called C&S Automotive....he raced a bubble top 61 Chevy.....348, I believe. Chuck helped me with some 4 speed problems prior to me being drafted.....I believe he died at a very young age....maybe in the late 60's... he wouldn't have raced at Cornhusker Raceway park, but he did race at Flight Land.
Another question is: does anyone have a picture of Charlie Jacob's, altered wheel base, 66 Chevelle??? (Black, with Charlies speed and machine on the doors)......
Also, does anyone remember the "Speed Shops" in Omaha....
Raceland....around 40th street, between Farnam and Douglas????? the other Speed Shop was Charlies speed and Machine.....as I recall, around 70th and Blondo......Seems like Charlie ran the machine shop, and his wife "Rose????" ran the counter...
Does anyone have any different memories?
