Lyle won. Re-match ended when 5-0 showed up w/ pistols drawn.
Funny part looking back.now...how 140 + mph tin cans handled a 70's NY street w/o much drama and how a large , quite unsavory and disparite race and age group assembled ..yet,seemed to engage and bet big ,and I mean BIG $$, w/o nary an issue.
Not so today..ever.

This car was my first lead to my cars history. Had Mark Janaky & Paul C. on the trail of this one, but so far have come up empty with no new info.There is a ressemblence from Lou Vignonia purchasing my car in Mt' Kisco & the above car possibly landing up in Mt. Kisco.
Any input from someone out there who might have some memories about this old street war horse from NY? or some more names I can follow up?.
