Re: Alan Peters Sr.
He ran the white convertible during the mid 70’s in L/stick, then transitioned to the silver hardtop he ran in J & K stick later which was the “Endless Flight” he won the World Championship with in’84.

Re: Alan Peters Sr.
Thanks for the correction Mark, the black vinyl top flawed my memory. Man he could drive that thing with amazing consistency.
I still can't believe we lost Dave and Alan within days of each other. For a small state Connecticut has had some great drag racers and also NASCAR Modified drivers as well. |

Actually, it was an earlier incarnation of the same car that had Endless Flight on the front fender. (Peters and Hozan) There's a new pic on the CT Dragway F/B page, of Alan and Dave racing each other. Sad times, for sure . And for those who think they might race again, better get with it. (Am I talking to myself again?)
