At Indy for nationals in mid 80"s got tossed for 2lbs too much spring pressure after winning class. This was after checking it two more times on same tester checking right on. Dave Danish comes over and watches everything, he says I'll go with first test.One week later we win Keystone Nationals and Tex Miller protests us after losing in final.Of course we fixed valve springs and pass tech.The best part is they tore down Tex too.Ha-ha.

73 Indy tech tossed for no seat belts pass side. Used to cut short bolts to put in lug nuts so they would come through looking long enough. 70,s Bristol after class runs was at P&G when a racer cranked his car over and it started blew the donut from the tube over the fence and nobody could find it. No more P&G that night.

In 1968 I built a Biscayne with a big block to run B/Stock. After painting the car, I decided to tint all the Windows with Cal Custom Spray tint. Everyone was doing it. At the Englishtown WCS meet Greg was teching my car and said you better go buy a box of Brillo Pads because you are not running this car with that tint. I spent two hours scouring the Windows before he would sign me off. Just one of many memories.
