File comment: Then they paved the track and I went to asphalt this was my first car, stock front clip, 358ci rule, 390 carburetor rule, 10" spec tire I raced a few seasons it was never the same as dirt racing money really makes a big difference on asphalt and I told myself if I cant do it right don't do it at all so I quit and never looked back kinda like a drunk quitting cold turkey.

Very Cool & great old pics, I grew up Drag Racing but always loved the dirt cars. :-) Here are a few of my old pics.

This first pic was taken at the Firestone Centerline ET bracket finals in Denver 1982. I was in the near lane with the 68 Camaro

This was taken @ PMI n Pueblo CO, 1986, My car was the 63 Nova in the near lane.

Image

These were taken in Phoenix & Denver back in 99 & 2000

Thanks, I still have the Yellow 68 SS/RS in the first pic but I sold the other one in the last 3 pics about 8 years ago. I built the one in the last 3 pics to look like the other one & called it "The Evil Twin"
