Had some epic battles with Al, and yes , he had fun at the track. We both ran sticks in usually J,K,or L stock at that time. He did it all, D1 champ, World Champ, record holder.
Rest in Peace my friend

Was runner up to Alan ( as a lot of people were) in my first National event final in the early 80s.When a couple of Div.1 loud mouths came over and started to harass me at the decal check, Alan ran over and told them to shut up,and move on.He was a very consistent light cutter.He wasn't always killer on the tree,but always green,and good.RIP Alan

One of the best Stock Eliminator racers of his time, 3 All Stars wins and always a threat to win, even after staying up all night in the pits having a great time. RIP Al !

Very sad news. Al was not only one of the best racers but just a real nice guy. Always had time to talk to anyone and never had a bad thing to say. My condolences to the family. RIP Alan we will miss you Barry

Had the pleasure to get to know him in Orlando div. He enjoyed the hell out of life. As a stick guy myself, always rooted for him. Don't rest in peace. Party on Alan.

I was introduced to Alan at the Gators by a mutual friend Lee Bannister many years ago and he made you feel like an old friend in just a couple hours, fun lovin , great sense of humor, hard racin man that enjoyed life to its fullest. I all ways looked him up at any race we attended. Wheels Up my Friend

Is this the same Alan Peters that ran a K/S 1969 Camaro Convertible ?
