Guys I found this site about a week ago and have really enjoy reading and seeing names that I haven't heard of in 30 + years. Names like Jimmy Parker, Sherman Adcock, Woodro Josey and others. These guys along with others probably remember a SS/P 65 Chevelve at Sulfork, Va setting the record at 12.11, when it started at Phenix City, Al at a 12.65, and the SS/Q at 12.52 at Blaney, SC..We went by Blount and Chastain back then. John Biedenkapp was the man and really give us a time back then. Checked us at both races..A great person to have passed so early in life....Thanks for the pictures and reading...

Have one ? for the members, does anyone know where abouts of Neil Cole, probably misspelled, of Montgomery, AL. Ran the Automotive Performance Engineers there....Please PM with any info on Neil.....or freekc_3@yahoo.com
