TOMMY great pictures as always. Your story about steve retton is about right. Due to his injuriers he had John Book drive the car. You should remember John and his pardner in crime Boogie Oliverio. They are still on the green side and Ii think still have a couple hemi cars.

Bought my '68 Barracuda in 1973 and started racing it in stock in 1975. Wow, have things over the last 30+ years.

How about Rich Diorio's old shoe box? He's been racing Div 1 ever since I can remember. Of course I'm an old guy and forget things.

I've been racing the same car (1969 Z/28) now from 1971, brackets first, then to Stock Eliminator. It's been an E or F car since 1973 or so. Even though I race in Stock, I still keep it street legal. Plates and Insurace with full exhaust.

Casey,
I remember your car at Dover Dragstrip.

Interesting Cobra Jet history. I used to hang around Brandon and Turnage with my dad when was a kid. The first of the two Nitro 9's is Donnie's car. Jeff Velde bought the second car when B&T got Glidden's pinto. Jeff bought the pinto and sold the second Nitro 9 at that point. I didn't know to whom he sold it. Maybe Jeff will chime in, but there were two of them. Jeff's must be the one that was seen at auction.......My car did come from the Dunahoos as Donnie Jr. said, and it was originally Jim Morgan's and was built by Ken Kier. I first saw the car in 1982 at the Gators right after Jim finished it. Never thought then that I would own it later down the road. Maybe I'll have my junk out to the track this year. I have not had time to work on it for a while. The .3 index change kinda gets me re-interested.
