Was this photo taken at Cecil County? The tree line and the grandstand look about the same, but the fence has been chain link since the dawn of time. I'm thinking it must be Cecil Cty, because of the Steve Kanuika Speed Shop decal on the car.

Also, I see by the lettering on the front fender that this is a Shallcross Brothers car. Didn't thay have a 66 Nova with the same paint scheme? I don't remember this '56. If it's before my time, it's gotta be pretty old.

I miss the old M/P classes-- they seemd to show as much creativity as the gassers, but more modern (for the time) technology yet still seemed affordable--you don't see that now

That's Gene Stewart and the photo was taken at Delmar. Gene later built a 66 Chevy II M/P car - and later in 68-69 swapped in a Big Block and ran in the early Pro Stock Match Races around the Del - MD - PA and NJ Area.

My good friend Jay Kalmus ran D/MP and on his car it stood for she's Doing /Me Proud. His car was a '57 Chevy wagon with a 301...we set the record in D/MP at 12.57 somewhere? He is the guy that got me involved in drag racing in the mid 60's.He Lost a long battle to cancer many years ago......He was a good guy and we had a heck of a lot of fun back in those early days........

Unhappy Re: D/mp

I started nostalgia racing my old C/SM Camaro at the end of 2007 with NETO - North East Timing Orgainization http://www.neto-nostalgia.com/

My car sat from 1978-2007, 30 years. I really miss Modified Eliminator

Pat....Since you race that N.E.T.O. deal, you know Tony Feil.......I worked in his shop in the mid 60's for a while and we all raced out of his shop. Tony raced a lot of different Gassers and /MP cars. I also raced with Dennis Siderko in the late 70's early 80's and we worked together at Crow's Head Shop. His C/SM Camaro ran pretty well and was pretty much the shop demo car for engine work.....The owner was Bill Crowley....he also worked for Tony Feil going all the way back to when Tony started in Hanover.......I think we ran 10.42 at the SummerNat'ls one year. Dennis bought Roger Whites Nova around 1980 and never could get that car to work as well as the Camaro....
