Bob, Glad to hear you're above ground. The last time I saw you was at I believe the Gators in 79. You were with Loyd (spell?) Robinson and there was a fellow with you that said he could pi$$ over a school bus. Please tell me I didn't dream that up,I am starting to get a little foggy, it comes with Social Security checks. :-) -----Damn fast Pontiacs--------Danny

Hi Danny! See that you're living in Fla. and enjoying the sun! That guy who was with us back then may have been Tom Krecskay. I remember hanging out at Englishtown one weekend with you and .some other guys. my memory is foggy as well! Lloyd still lives around here but has quit racing. Bob michael

I think your talking about Danny Crawley from Ind.

The original Cuda was traded with Dale Meers from Buffallo KY for the Duster. It was Shay Nichols Por Stock car, she has quite a history as well as the car. I believe her ride in that car made her the first female in Pro Stock.
That car was traded within a year for the red white & blue Cuda, which was Ronald Lyles' Pro stock car. That car was the first Sox&Martin pro stock Cuda that Ronnie won a bunch of races in, then they built a new car in '71 and sold the original '70 car to Lyles.

What ever happened to the old Ford Highboy that your dad had at your house back then. I remember him showing it to us and telling us he had to let the air out of the tires to get it under the garage door....
BTW - I believe it was '75. I got out of school to go w/dad get the car, it was not done, so I got to work at Herb's shop for a couple weeks while it was finished.
I still remember, Herb had me painting the cage, and his quote was "It the car runs as fast as the paint, we got it made!"

Re: Any you guys remember Roger England of Columbus, IN
 

If I recall correctly, Shay Nichols first ran an original ZL-1 Camaro in Pro Stock, followed by a Challenger, and then the Duster. She and Shirley Shahan were among several women in Pro Stock in the early '70's but Shay was likely the most active female driver. There was a feature on the Duster in DRUSA or SS&DI back in the day.

Re: Any you guys remember Roger England of Columbus, IN
 

He sold the Ford, I think it was a 1925 model. And yes I have heard that quote many times throughout my life, there are a few more my dad has but I'm not sure I can put them on here. HAHA
