Never to early to think about Indy and AHFS

[Frank Castros]

Yes Barry I raced an A/SA Max Wedge Belvedere during the Stein/LeBrun/Dvorak/Leopold Era and very proud of our competitiveness. We didn't win a Divisional or National Event but always qualified well, frequently in the top 16, went rounds but came up short of the ultimate prize.
As a "kid" in the sixties and seventies all I wanted to accomplish was to race with the big dogs in the Land of NED, and I did.
I very much appreciate the opportunity and will never forget it. It's always been my passion.

Frank wasn't it so much more fun back then. Not many held back 3 and 4 tenths so not to get HP. I've said it before on here I'm glad for a lot of the rule changes. I don't want to be running in the low 11's in A/SA. But those were the good old days. And you've named some icons of our sport. And some really good guys. Are you able to still race and do you go to any of them?

Frank if you do stop over and say hi. I have some great older pictures. I even have one at E-Town with a fan in the middle of the track mooning the other side while there trying to run cars down the track. The guy looks like Billy. But as they say all asses look the same. Sorry Billy I couldn't resist. I do have some great Photo's including that one
