Dwight has been in the Pine Bluff hospital the last 8 days with pneumonia. Hopefully will get out soon.

I posted a picture of Dwight's Impala while in the pits one day at Carlisle Drag-O-Way on Face Book in a group call "Drags Strips that no longer exist". It was shot in 74 before Indy that year. This was before bracket racing and Carlisle could field Stock, Super Stock and Modified/Comp eliminators. When I get home I'll try to post the photo on here.

Does anyone know who has Dwight's car now? I thought Richard Feldman's car came from Div 4?

Got in touch with Gail (Red) Cox. She is going to send me some pictures of the cars and some from her days a Carlile, AR track.
Swamprabbit, I so look forward to seeing those photos. I've been Googleing for photos of Carlisle and there is very little out there about that track. It truly is a "ghost track".

Raced at Carlysle many times. Dwight was most always there. Lots of fun back then.

You could always contact Dennis or Dean Oliver. They had to endure living in the same town with Cox. Or the world-famous "Buffarilla" - Billy Herndon - at Herndon's Small Engine Repair (870) 673-1106. Billy was the one who kept Dwight pointed in one direction at a time.

That would keep a guy busy. :-)

Hope Dwight gets over his pneumonia soon. That stuff is hard on us old guys. Always liked Dwight. Was always nice to me. Fun to talk to. Good racer.
