Dave wren still has it

[Rory McNeil]

I just got off the phone with a friend of mine who was racing at the Loafers Oldies race in Ashcroft BC Canada this weekend, it seems that Dave Wren won his class today, not sure which car in the fleet he was racing, but his light blue 62 Savoy has been seeing a fair bit of track time the past few years. As a teenager in the late 60`s-early 70`s, I got to see a bunch of Daves cars at the old Mission track, from his yellow & purple 70 Hemi Cuda (SS/D & DA) a few 68 SS/AA cars, and likely my all time favorite, a SS/B 64 2 dr sedan. Around 77 or 78, Dave was running a D/Modified Compact Plymouth Arrow, which I believe was the least favorite he ever raced. Dave is quite a character, and diehard MoPar guy. A couple of years ago he was checking out my buddys really nice 67 327 4 speed Nova, and gave the car his ultimate compliment, for a non MoPar car; Quote:" Out of all the Chevys ever made, those are the ones I hated the least"! Pretty high praise indeed.....
