I know Ronald Lyles was big up there as well. He called my dad at midnight one night wanting him to fly up to NY the next night to run a street race in his 71 pro stock car. Ill find out which Sox and Martin car the Smallwood Bros bought.

GaryGoFast,
The 'Wedge Inn'. The Castro family owned the place. The dividing line
between Westchester racers and The Bronx racers..
Many 'burn-outs' on Boston Road (Route 1)
Don't know if you were their for the race between the 67' Chevy II
427 Tunnel-rammed A/MP car from the University of Vermont
(silver color, lettered 'Amphetamine'), and the 70' 'Motion' Camaro
from Long Island. Best 2 out 3 race I ever saw on the Hutchinson River
Parkway!!!

Herb, one post I came across mentions the two cars were a 1969 notchback-roof car and a 1972 Plymouth 'Cuda, but it would be interesting if you could find out for sure. Did your dad end up shoeing that night for Ronald Lyles? Do you recall what year this was?

From what I recall it was the 1972 'Cuda.
