Re: 1955 Chevrolet Q/SA Build
The 55 Chev Stocker takes it's first event win at the Tri Five Nationals Bowling Green,KY. this last weekend. They had a dial in race for all the Jr. Stock type cars in attendance. Sixteen cars made the first round. Many original cars were in competition. The 57 sedan delivery of Kyle Marshall from Indy now owned by Tim Pogue and more. I will post names and pics in the future. I ran Anne Toews ( NHRA racer Todd Hoven's mother in law) in Barry Wallner's 57 Sedan delivery in the final in front of a big crowd of on lookers. Anne tripped the red eye to give me the win. Picture of me against the 55 red wagon was first round action. Check out the crowd. Weather was great in the low to mid 80s as past years had upper 90s. The trophy was donated by 1967 NHRA Stock World Champion George Cureton. He drove Mike Szczepanski's beautiful "Tokyo Rose" 56 sedan delivery P/SA car to the semi finals. The 55 ran 13.40's at 95 mph all weekend at around P/SA weight. Not real fast but consistent.
