Car Name Memories

[Timetraveler]

I have had "TIME TRAVELER" on mine for twenty five years running in stock and brackets. My brother had a chevy II H/MP called "FRUSTRATION".

[Rick Unterseh]

I wanted to get into Stock eliminator since I started racing, I told my ex-wife that it was a dream of mine to race at divisionals and eventually a National event. She said it was nothing but a pipedream and I should concentrate on making more money. I finally built a car with lots of help from Neil Smedley and Jess Suter, while I was building it, someone asked what I was gonna name it, and I wasn't sure at the time. I mumbled something about my dream is almost there and I had to explain what I meant. It was unanimous, PIPEDREAM became the name. I haven't won a divisional or a National yet, and I will keep trying. I was #1 qualifier at a National, and was featured in a Pontiac magazine and I had to send a copy of the magazine to each of the kids and to the ex wife certified mail, so I know she got it.

You are probably thinking of Peter driving Don Rudolphs Chevy II, "Canned Heat" I'm pretty sure he won at least 1 Division Title in it....

The "BAT" as we used to call it was a great car and Joe Foster was a great guy and racer. He won the Pro Et division title around 1984 and tied for the Division S/ST title around the same era.

The car was wrecked at Atco when either an axle broke or wheel studs and the tire got under the car and it rolled.

"Tempus Fugit" was always one of my favorites....Rick Wolfe....A Mopar SS'er……..Latin for Time Flys….

My good friend Ted Razmus Nova……."Razoom" Often mistaken for Ed Racis C/SM car.....same color, same hood scoop....

I know Dwight will remember these:

Randy Heer's Olds Spirit { 53 olds ) and Clyde Robillard's Hell's Hemi
