Remember when we had to leave the pits ?

[Frank Castros]

This thread does bring back the memories.
Working on the car in the motel parking lot. Watching others do the same.
Towing an open trailer with a station wagon.
I remember a guy coming up to us at Maple Grove after sizing up our tow rig and our very nice SS/EA '67 Corvette and saying, "I know where all your money is being spent!"
I realized we where good at packing the tool box on our open trailer when all of our buddies would come to us to borrow stuff!
Those where the days.

I remember sleeping under the truck in sleeping bags because we couldn't affort a motel.
I also remember hearing about a certain Ohio racer that backed his trailer or truck through the window of his competitors motel room. (By accident) I wasn't there, but enough people verified the mishap.
Another time someone put a transmission or parts on their bed, enough fluid leaked out the the maid called the sheriff thinking a murder had been committed.
We left for California fron N.J one year with a total of $300 in our combined pockets. And no credit cards.
