Bobby Warren on TV - Page 2

Bobby is like the energizer bunny. He keeps on going no matter what is thrown at him.

One of the best times of my life was when we had the old timers racers reunion ealier this year. Watching and listening to Bobby, Garley Daniels, and several others tell some of their stories was a time to behold.

As we say down south - "good people"

i was stationed in jacksonville in 1975-77 and got the pleasure of watching Bobby race with us. back then we went drag racing on friday/saturday nights and on sunday during the day. i was eighteen and drove my everyday driven 69 nova to the drag strips and race it. i ran 13.00 flat for the two years i raced it. i even drove it to michigan for christmas one year. but i remember always telling myself i want one of bobby warren's cars. they were all the best they could be, the two years i spent in N.C. were i will never forget and it's because of friends like bobby.

Hi
Does anyone know what Bobby's most successful race car was? The 69 camaro maybe? Where is it now? Yeah... we should start a photo gallery of his former cars. Like that awesome Thunder Valley thread.

Here's a pic of Mr. Bobby's World Championship Nova that I took at Kinston, NC, on a Sunday afternoon after the Blaney points meet on Saturday night.

My guess would be the SS/IA '67 Camaro that he won several national events with in '74. I think he may have won the Div 2 title that year also. That car was featured in a lot of magazine ads back then. He wrecked that car in a top end collision with Jim Kinnett at the Blaney points meet in 76 or 77.
