Alex was one of the good ones.

When I was facing a 12+ Hour Kidney Cancer Surgery and likely
Death.....Alex encouraged me and told me I would get through it!

I sure wished I had got to know him more....But we lived on opposite
sides of world.

RIP

Smile Re: Car Name Memories

My old pal, the late Zenon ("ZK") Kotelko in the C/SM Nite Rider in the near lane. I actually owned that car for awhile. I miss ZK a lot. He was a great character. I also miss Modified Eliminator a bunch too....

Not a car "name", but there was a wagon that ran at the old Houston track that I'll never forget. It had "SPONSORED BY WEAKLY SALARY" on the quarter panels.

One of my favorites was "Endless Journey" on a mopar that used to run brackets at Englishtown owned by George Masebrook (spelling?) Haven't seen or heard of him in years, hope he is well.
