I went down the track the first time in 1964 and was hooked. After a tour on the USS America, I returned to shore duty and Tom Stenzel and I built a 1969 Camaro, 427/425, 4 speed and set the B/S record at Gainesville, Fla. on a hot and humid Sept. 13, 1969. That was when racing was fun. We painted the car, built the engine(std. bore TRW pistons), rebuilt the M22, and assembled the 12 bolt rear. We had almost $2000 in the car before it went down the track; quite a sum for two young guys at the time. I have raced several cars in stock and SS over the years. I still build a few stocker motors since I sold my stocker in 2010.
