Some almost recent history........

Don't forget about Don Forester and Dave Smith from SoCal........

We watched them tear down for a few records and Class wins with their Oldsmobles........

Hi Jim(thrash7781) ,
I have Dick Griffins 1978 Brown and tan 442. I have owned it for over 30 years now. I did lots of test and tune racing with it, but no official events. I also did some legal street racing events with the car for about 10 yrs.
I have made modifications to the car. Probably wouldn't have if I had known
the history of the car. Haven't run the car for about 5yrs. Was last running 10.70's. It sound like the car has had several owners since Dick campaigned
It. 2 people have approached me at the track in Stanton Mi saying they owned the car. And a local Motocrosser named Denny Bently came to my house saying he also owned the car. A local Racer named Jim Brehm identified it as Dicks car. A friend named Dave Eberhardt helped me with various stages of the project when I hobby raced "Cut Loose" which is painted on the trunk deck. Came across your 2005 post asking about car.
Would love to hear from anyone. Ed Sawyer, Owosso Michigan
I have pics, but upload keeps failing

Buddy Ingersoll's 72 Cutlass, Ron Garey's cars, and anything by Danny Lattimore. I have a photo of Danny's Delta 88. Dave Audet is in the (Capitol Raceway) photo. Tom Goldman is Jack Troxell's nephew. All good guys.
