Jim still races his J/S Chevelle locally at the IHRA and NMTRA races. Jim was fortunate enough to get all 3 to sign the photo for him and brings it to all of our P.I.D. reunions. Now as to what was being discussed, I will have to get back to you on that!

Thanks, Carl. Yes, I'd like to know what Ronnie said that was so funny.

I thank Mr. Truby every time I see him for all of the great drag photos that he took. He is the link between my generation (32) and the good old days of stock / super stock racing.

I've downloaded hundreds of his photos (including pix of your dad's Mopars) and am very grateful he was so generous to share.

As far as Camaros go, this is my favorite "Toy."

Anyone here know the number of Camaros that were in "Grumpy's Group" as seen in this pic on the rear spoiler...

Hey mcink,
Did Grumpy have his Monza PS that Larry Lombardo was driving for him by then or was he in Grumpy's Camaro Z/28 PS, but judging by the year you say of the pics it probably was the Camaro Z/28...would you happen to have any more pics of the car at Thunder Valley Dragway.
