hey John
Welcome here, & thanx for sharing those photos. I didn't take a single shot all weekend. Camara stayed in the hotel dead with the charger @ home.
I appologize for the beer drought. I must have been in the middle of a brain fart or somethin @ the time. I know I ran out Saturday night. US border patrol only allows a 24 accross
I owe you some next time. Just gotta remind my failing memory tho.............

Thanks Daryl.

I've been working my way through this fantastic thread for some time
(from the begining). The other night at "O" dark 30 I happenned to log
in from the back end and starting to see some familiar sights.

Too bad our Duster with the all-aluminum 426 isn't a "ROLO" but Denny
and I had a great time anyway.

Joe Pappas and his wife Lynn spent most of Saturday afternoon with
us and your cohort Don also stopped over for a while.

I had no idea that Don now owned the Ed Miller Cuda (soon to be a premium
diecast - Jim Thoren at Supercar Collectables is a friend of mine) until we
talked a bit. Hopefully you'll do some shows together.

If you do Carlisle next year maybe we can caravan (we are just south of
Toledo), pick up our buds at Pittsburg and all get over there together.

When we left this year there was a new Holiday-Inn Express under
construction at the head of the road going into the Motel-6.

Denny is making motor mounts for Skypower (see above) and his
headers are in our shop.

My only question is: "Why were your's and ours the only two trailers
at the "host hotel"?

I'll attach a couple of pictures, including some with Denny and Joe.

For those that haven't seen it, gaze at the shadow in the paint on
the side of the car.

A few Mancini Dart pics from my archives - collected over the years (not my pics).

My brothers were standing at the rail at Indy when the rollover occurred.

Hi John sure looks like I missed out on another great time, sure wish Florida was farther north sometimes, then others not so much.

Looks like some amazing cars there.

I think this must be where Daryl and Don get the Canadian beer

Don't remember seeing this updated one yet.(if it was an original)

This is the dark THT dart. Ben Hicks bought it from Dennis Toplets and was the second owner.
