Behemoth page 28.. Killer driver and car.... Saw him run 2 out of 3 against Boertman for S eliminator at Saginaw due to clock problems....Everyone stood on top of trailers to watch... 11:00 at night. What a show. Dont remember the winner . I think it was Boertman...1971 or 2
Kyle Marshall "Hustlin Hoosier" T/S Silver 66 283 page 29 good friend and Great driver of stick. Had 57 Panel truck on previous page...
Kyle Brothers 69 Camaro when they really became competitive. They bought motor from Truppi and Kling in Jersey and began to dominate locally with Danny driving. Won the Division....They still run competitively in SS.

Behemoth was owned and driven by Bob Burkitt the 1969 Stock World Champion. The car is now in Division 1.

Happy to hear that everyone is enjoying the pictures. All the credit should go to Redman though. He was kind enough to send me the pictures and allow me to put them in an online album for everyone to see. I still have quite a few to crop and photo shop that I will be adding to the album and hopefully Redman will be sending more pictures in the future.

Hello guys. Looking for some help. I purchased a 1967 Yenko Camaro. It is Black with red interior. It raced at this park. Had 427 cross flag emblems on the front fenders, white bumblebee stripe on front end, and white pinstripes on the sides. It might have had a white vinyl top also. May have been raced by a guy named Don Zimmerman? Not sure on the first name. I was told he lived on a farm in or near Cincinnati. Car had a 4 pin lift off hood at one time with a big scoop. Any help appreciated. Thanks!
