The engine builder for my cousins car mentioned his car name in this forum and that's how I found this forum. He raced up at Music City Raceway in Greenbrier Tn. ....formally known as Union Hill Drag strip in the early years.....

"Rambunctious " owned and driven by Wayne Basham

some of you might remember Billy Hobbs Jr. of Hobbs Transmission (he is in the background with white cowboy hat)

My '72 Dodge Demon Super Stocker (I still have it) I named "Demonstration". My current FWD Stocker I put "Out Front Racing" on the door. My very first race car ride was a 1966 "D" Stock Dart (273) factory race car. It's name was "Lambcharger". My first car was a '31 Model A sedan with an old Hemi. I called it "The Time Machine".Jim

Michael ,You didn't mention that Rick Wolfe was a jeweler/ watchmaker. "Time Flies"

LOL... yup. He also fixed my glasses several times when I was a kid. I somehow managed to break the nosepieces off them in gym class or something stupid, and Mr. Wolf would solder them back on. He had the first Wally I had ever seen -- a Class win trophy on display in his store. Claims that car has 16 street-driven miles on it - bought it new from BZ Motors in Lewisburg, PA.

A few others from bracket cars at Beaver Springs...
Timekeeper
Total Confusion
Buzzard Hunter
Blue, I Say, Blue By You (w/ Foghorn Leghorn)
Grey Hare (Bugs)
Hare Raising (Bugs)
