Re: Vintage Colorado S/SS photos
These are from Bandimere Speedway- The Mile High Nationals- I am pretty sure these are from the1979 event.
This group has Jim Weakland's Camaro and Bob Marshall's '65 Hemi Coronet, Hooker's Camaro & Scheitlin's 'Cuda. Paul Rossi and the white Camaro....I know this car and the driver but it's been too many years- I'm sure someone can help me out. John Wolfe's "Kansas Hemi" and Eddie Rezac, Rod Kister's '63 Dodge Max Wedge car. Another shot of Scheitlin's 'Cuda and I am pretty sure this was the event where he won Best Appearing Car. Yes, this is the car I bought a few years later and I still have it today. |

Re: Vintage Colorado S/SS photos
These are also Bandimere Speedway but the Divisional events 1978-1980.
The Stevens Brother's Chevelle and I don't know the other Chevelle, Dwayne Scheitlin's Camaro, Rick Rusk's "Kelvinator" N-SA, Bob Johnson and Joe Novak's Mustang, Don Hackenberg's '64 Max Wedge car, The shot of Dennis Maurer's car was from the Nationals (I missed it when I made the Nationals post). A pair of Novas and here I go again, I know both of these but I will remember the names tomorrow (or when someone tells me!) pretty sure the "Born Free" car was the Nova that changed owners a lot and I couldn't keep track of it back then either. Lastly is Ron Peters SS-I Duster. |

Re: Vintage Colorado S/SS photos
Just a few more from Bandimere Speedway, 1976-1978.
Another of Maurer's '65 Hemi car and I always liked how the light weight front end would shake when he did a burnout- seemed like the bumper was going to fall off! The A-S Nova was driven by Dwayne Scheitlin, it is his brother's car. The shot of Dick Saunders' SS-F Vette shows that wild tree that Bandimere's had until 1977. John told me he still has that tree in his basement! A couple of Tim Cole- his cool notch back Vega (that's John Bandimere right behind the car). Could that Vega fit in any of the SS classes today? And at the risk of being blasted for posting a shot of a dragster- I had to include Cole's wild big tire C-ED. Since Tim has been a SS racer for some time now (more than 20 years!) maybe I won't be bashed too bad for posting a dragster picture? (we all had to start somewhere- right?). The last shots I have to share are from the Fallnationals in Seattle 1975- I have just a few S & SS pictures from that event. I will post those in the next day or two. |
