Alan Peters Sr.

He won the Allstars three years in a row as well as several Divisional and National Events. Did it with a Stick. He was a special driver.

First Dave LeBrun, now Alan Peters, two great racers from Connecticut have left us in a short time.

Rest in peace Alan, you were very good to me when I first started racing and I never forgot it.

I'm very sorry to hear of Alan's passing. He was a legendary competitor and I consider myself lucky to be counted as one of his friends. I'm sure he and Dave will be doing some great bench racing up in Heaven.

I believe it was a 2 bbl, too.
Never got to meet the man, heard lots of good things.
My former partner, Mike Smith was in a restaurant with Al after substanial consumption of "adult beverages". While talking to the waitress about their racing, Mike told her, "And he's the World Champion". The effect of the alcohol on Al seemed to leave her less than impressed. lol
