Very sad to hear this. Tony was one of the sharpest, wittiest , talented guys you would ever want to meet.
Plus he was a businessman , par excellence. He got the work done and out..No delays or stories. There was a lot to learn from this man. RIP, bud |

Re: Tony Feil
Tony was without a doubt a man exactly as Mark described. A No nonsense businessman and extremely smart man and good drag racer.
He was also very funny when he wanted to be It is very painful seeing people you were with in your youth pass on. RIP Tony.... |
Re: Tony Feil
I did not know Tony like some of you, but a couple things do come to mind.
Stopped at his shop with a friend who was dropping parts off. I believe we were going to the D1 banquet that night. So i got a little grease on my pants and Tony said I got just the thing. Pulls out a rag and puts some solvent on it and it took it right off. He then looks right at me and with a straight face says," Perfect, your leg will fall off in a day or two" LOL We are at the D1 WWCS race at New England Dragway in the early 80's, staying on the circle in Portsmouth, Tony arrives towing with a suburban , on the quarter panel in small letters it says "Hotel Suburban" Ya in that day, we all slept in our rigs often. RIP , he was a good man |
Re: Tony Feil
Always read about Tony in many monthly publications back in the day about his engine building prowess and see him at Divisionals and national events. Did not personally meet him until his later years when he was an officer of N.E.T.O. at their year end banquet about 20 years ago. I saw a man who commanded a great deal of respect from his fellow racers. At a race at LV, I remember him while racing his Vette casually dressed in a button down collared shirt and very neat and professional looking. A class act ! May the perpetual light shine upon his soul...
