The first picture in post 184, is the Jacobs 69 Camero, with the new owner Jay Bridgewater (on the right), that bought the Camero and it was re-named "RD Shaker"'. (He was from Omaha) The picture is about 1970 - 71 ??

Bridgewater could have had a partnership with Nick Whitaker, but not sure.

I think Bridgewater lives in Colo. now.

Don't recall the name of the other guy on the left.

Who is the owner of the maroon 56 Chevy in post 188...it looks like my old 56 after I sold it, but it used to be white and ran in Jr Stock.
Mine was a 210, and had some of the same chrome trim removed and the tach on the dash.

I am not so sure about this.....If you are talking about Charlie Jacobs, 69 "Pro Stock" Camaro. You could be correct, but I don't think this is the same car. I had a chance to buy the pro stock roller in 1972. It had Super Tricks on the front then, plus a lot of fiberglass on the front end. $1,000 was the asking price. I was thinking that Daryl Arrowsmith might have bought it.


Correction, Kind of....LOL.... I now realize that the RD Shaker you are talking about was the Super Stock car and not the Pro Stock car.

******Anyone know what happened to the maroon 56 Chevy in post 188 ? Picture must be early 1970s?

Re: Cornhusker Raceway Park
 

Yea, I'm on the Cornhusker record list too....no idea if my track records were broken later. I have copied to my computer...haven't seen a copy for 40 years probably. Like the Charleys sticker on the top of page. I worked there qiute a while back then.

had this photo added to the Cornhusker FB site today, thought I would share it with everyone. It was raced by a lady, her home town track was Cornhusker. This photo was taken in 76 when the lady took U stock championship
