Wayne--Welcome and I know you'll like it here....there are plenty of seniors who are willing to talk about the good 'ole days--most who remember your hometown hero--Cotton Perry . By the way -- why did they call your track Brainerd Optimist ? Also , at 54 years young you can still jump into something and do brackets (or more) again--it might keep you young awhile longer..........Happy New Year

high winder, that was Terry and Sandy Hood who always ran Fords, I've got several photos of their old cars. Terry went into the dump truck driving business and they haven't raced in about 15 years.

Hi Wayne, Neat website, huh? Lots of history here.
Mark you can reach Cotten at 706-935-3281. Jack, Dragstrip is owned by the Optimist Club of Brainerd. Brainerd is a community in Chattanooga. Your little GTO is really a cool piece, can't wait to see it with war paint. Good luck with your new car. Highwinder, the lady driver you ask about is Sandy Hood. Her husband is Terry Hood. They still own the little Falcon. |
