I don't recall the exact details but one car was a hdtp and the roof was cutoff and made into a sedan......to better fit the class rules.

The sedan ran SS/JA with a 327....and is still a racecar....

I did not know of Anne until this weekend but I am a fan now!

Greg Barsamian · 08-25-2020, 06:44 PM

Was fortunate to meet Anne in the Stageing Lanes with her daughter Jen (aka Mrs Todd Hoven)
Had a "GREAT Conversation" about her and her car, and how she got to NH to race it.

It's people like Anne that inspire many to continue to do this CrAzY thing we call Class Racing.

It was my pleasure to meet you Mrs Toews

I haven't seen Anne in person since 1972 but I still recognize her.
It's inspiring that she's racing again.

She was at the tri five national last year driving Barry Walters Jr Stock car.

I'm very happy for Anne and I know Walter is smiling too !
I was very glad that Walt and Anne asked me to be a part of bringing the Camaro back to life after its long rest .
This car is so original it was scary ! only the wheel openings had been rolled under to clear the 10" Super Stock tires ' and a couple holes in the floor pan from the old Lakewood hoop !
More than a few people who saw it in my shop begged me not to put the roll bar in ,and please let them call Walt to buy it !
They had no idea how special this car was to both Walt and Anne !
Go get em Anne , you haven't missed a step while away on you're "short vacation "away from the track !

Thank you everyone for the kind words in your posts about Anne. She is having the time of her life driving that car and racing with all the great people we get to race with and against. Just competing this weekend in an NHRA National Event was a dream come true for her.

I also want to thank Jack Sepanek for walking over and helping her back into her game and the burnout box. Also thank you to Katie for shutting off the car and waiting. It was a kind selfless act and just displays what a super guy and sportsman he is. Like a good friend of mine says. He is the “salt of the earth”

With the world feeling like it’s coming apart at the seems, and there is division and strife everywhere, These are the moments that still show that there is good and kindness in the world and sometimes it can be right in front of you when you don’t expect it. Thank you Jack and Katie Sepanek so much for everything and we are so proud and honored to call you friends.
