So Stan, I see that you were involved with facilities of higher knowledge, before founding the Stan Hawes Institute of Technology!

When Kriston Powell was racing top fuel their sponser was JCIT who pushed just on time delivery of parts. He pushed that parts on shelves cut in to profits, he went belly up when his followers had factory shut downs when the parts were late. I told Gary Ericksen that if there was JCIT we needed a **** and this is when the Stan Hawes Institute of Technology was started. I have polo shirts, t shirts, and stickers with my logo. Our message is SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP YOU MIGHT LEARN SOMETHING. It has a lot of fun on and off of the race track. Teachers like the t shirts with the message on the back.

Brookdale Community College had a class car too, I believe a 67/68 Camaro, when I went there in the 80s, there were teachers there that were involved with the car. don't know what happened to it. maybe someone on here does.

No, That was for WAA shirts, hats & stickers. WAA is Woodburn Aggravation Association. was put on probation for one year for conduct detramental to a track operator & unsportsmanlike conduct. Woodburn drag strip is NOT mentioned. It was in retalliation for a whistle blower event that I was blamed for. Jim Sowerds sister was an ACLU attorney in the bay area and offered to take the case. Bye then I was tired of fighting them. My attorney told me I could not win because they would they have a lot more money than me. All I wanted to do was race. A couple of years later I went to LODRS race at Woodburn. Chris Blair Checked with the NHRA legal department for me and they told him that I had to be allowed to enter the race because because I was in the points chase, the Division Director is in charge at a LODRS race. When iI pulled in there were a lot of supprised people, they thought that Livingston could ban me from the property. Crow never tastes good. NHRA even had Rich Carlson go inside my trailer and take pictures of my sign when I wasn't there. I had RV plates on the trailer and Carlson a year or more later told me he illegally entered my trailer at NHRAs direction. Now that I an no longer racing I can talk about the sneaky way NHRA took care of their track owners. Life is like a manure sandwich, the more bread you have the less manure you have to eat. Enjoying the retired life with my hot rod 67 ElCamino and my 67 C-10 panel.

The corvette is still in Boring Oregon. After it was purchased the motor was pulled out and put in a boat, or so I was told. I believe the car is sitting engineless next to the boat still.
I still have a WAA sticker on my tool box. Stan gave it to me after I grenaded a 12 bolt posi so violently that shrapnel shot through the rear cover and dumped 90 weight all over the starting line bring racing to a stop. I guess I earned the sticker. Mike Parmenter |
