Re: Oldest class racer
Pete will turn 92 on September 4th. He has not driven for about 2 years now. Correct me if that is wrong.
Are we looking for oldest or oldest active? Just asking. In typical Pete humor he asked me at his 90th birthday party. Do you think I could go to Pacific and make a pass "Just for the fun of it."? I told him probably not, but I like the way you think.

Re: Oldest class racer
I turned 80 July 12th. Health issues, bad back, have forced me to the side.
But I can still dream!! Put the batteries in, a little fuel and the "Buzzin" is ready to go! #5458 Curt Rees

Re: Oldest class racer
Jim Hale is 80something, and still is a good driver of his '65 Dodge Coronet SS/CA car.
How about Bob Marshall? He's been active lately, with his SS/AA '65 Coronet.
