CCRA Racer Spotlight

CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association Racer Spotlight:

Mr. Jim Morgan from Wilson, NC is our racer spotlight edition this week. He is 68 years young & has been racing for 50 years. You will find Mr. Jim running his 1964 Plymouth Fury powered by a 426 CI built by him & last week's racer spotlight, Mr. Doug Hobgood of H&f performance. He recalls one of his most memorable wins being one of Dave Ley's East Coast Stock/SuperStock Association races driving a Camaro fro Charlie Graf. Some of his accomplishments include winning GT/AA class two years in a row at Sanair in Canada. (Side note: they no longer race at this track) , winning SS/GTD class in Englishtown once, & at Maple Grove twice. He wants to give "Special Thanks" of course to his wife, Debbie. Also thanks Charlie Graf, Jerry Stein, Dan Counselor, Bruce Campbell, & Doug Hobgood.

Mr. Jim & his wife are two of the nicest people at the race track. They kind of stay to themselves but you will find Mr. Jim walking the pits & stopping to chat with his fellow racers. He has been a supporter of CCRA-Carolina Class Racers Association for a few years now & we really appreciate him choosing our association to race with.

We have a few months off but will be back in action at KDS Motorsports in June. I'm sure Mr. Jim will be there & y'all can tell him you read his article here. See y'all at a track soon!
