Mark, I remember it well, one of the things that hook you and draw you in deeper and remind you about how you became a racer for life.

Re: Tom's photos #2

Had a call from Carl Bennett a few weeks ago. He's looking for his Camaro. The SS/I stick car in the photos.

If anyone has any leads, they can contact me and I'll pass them on.

We once had a Division 1 NED Stock Circuit series and we ran a race at Island Dragway. Butch Yurick ran the program.......Lebrun ran A/S with his Camaro I think and I also recall the Corvette driven by Mark Mazotta.....We ran Lebrun with our H/S Chevy II and both cars ran .05 under the record but my partner redlighted. We were low qualifier at .11 under the record....Skip Asay won the race I think......Lebrun was running around 11.40.

The '69 Camaro called one step beyond was Al Olster.......
Carl Bennett ran his Camaro in G/S and drove it himself before the SS days. He was one of T/K's best.

Mark, you would have loved the cherry early 50's Hudson I saw the other day on the Mass pike-I remember seeing one of them in stock when I was a kid.
