that was ed kilpatrick car in the early 70s

Another Champion who doesn't get his due. Hill did great things in racing. Same with Freeman, Simonsen, Para, and Middleton.

5-D was the name of the oil we sold at Cities Service gas stations.

The original "Intimidator" running against the original "One Tough Customer". Wonder what Earnhardt could have done against these two and the likes of Pronger, Janecyk, Van Allen, Simonsen, Kemperman, Kullman, Williams, Kapovich, Hill, Freeman, Middleton, Para, Weltmeyer, Oldenberg, Church, Bauer, and Nutley.

Richie died a long time ago............

Looking at the Fernando Brothers (car owners) and "My Man Vee", who turned up everywhere. RIP, Vee!

One of our favorite drivers and people. Now driving a bus in Disney World. Thanks for everything, George!!!!!!!!!

Funny what a little dance hall wax on the track can do................

That is just before Petes car jumps through the stage, right?? That is Mike Rossi driving. Miss Smirnoff ended up with some bruises.

And huge mirrors!!

This photo was taken at Illiana.

I WAS THERE! SEEN IT!... MY SISTER KATHY WAS MAD THAT SHE MISSED IT... SHE WAS THE PARA'S BABY SITTER BACK THEN..GOOD TIMES..

I have this picture on a color button.

I was talking about this picture with someone who was there that night and said Smokey was not very happy about changing tires.

With the roll cage made of square tubing.

Went to school,hung out with Tom's kid Frank and was always at the house when the car was being worked on, thought I was a member of the "crew". Then reality set it when we all went to the track, cause then I was just a kid having fun. What great memories that I'll take to my grave...I sure miss those days!!
Great site,thanks....

AWESOME!!!!
