I took the photo with me to Mission Raceway in B.C. a few years back and showed it to Harry and Julie, who got a kick out of it.
The photo of Butch Leal's "California Flash" '65 car was taken at Ontario Motor Speedway, site of the NHRA Supernationals/World Finals in '74, on an early morning walk around, thats Butch standing in front of the car. There were 2 carloads of us guys driving all night from Tacoma to get there and we slept in the parking lot,,, but we were 21, on our own and enjoying life! Where did the time go?

Any of you guys remember the red 65 Dodge of Johnny Perkins out of Jesup, Ga. The one thing I always remember is it had a aluminum front end with the phrase "Bend it Buy it" on the top of the front fenders.. Frank

It is restored back to it's original colors. That was Butch Leal's first A990 car.

Also, the Flack & Comstock Plum Crazy photo posted above is a '64 and running as a Max Wedge car. Rick Lakin later ran it with a Hemi.

Thanks for the info on Fast Eddies car we raced with him at Eldora we he was in our zone working.
