Oh those early days. My uncle Jim bought a 69 Z/28 brand new and of course, the first thing you do is take it to the track. I was 10 at the time, what a blast. Later that year my dad bought a new Chevy P/U and so with 75 miles on it, Jim made tow tabs and a tow bar and off to the races we go in class... towing! Fortunately, I was small enough that I could get under the Z/28 and remove and install the driveshaft without having to jack it up. Probably a year later we really stepped it up with the purchase of those tow hubs! Man we were first class then! Find a good pit spot and back the truck up to the fence at Cecil where Grandmom could sit in the lawn chair and see the races and we were set!

I also remember those funny cars coming to the track on the ramp trucks. I remember Tommy Ivo's enclosed clear sided ramp truck. I like looking back at the pictures from that era and seeing the hair and clothing styles along with the "old" cars and trucks in the background.

Yep, a lot of fun!!!

Safe Trips All!!!
