Dino, your e-mail doesn't work. I still have the "Dover Gang" picture from Indy in my scrapbook. Remember when I backed into a car and you all took up a collection for the damages? Too much (JA) Grog. The last time I saw you was when I booked in the Jim & Allison Lee car at Dover. Gator U R re-JAck Approved! RH, if you remember Marshall Hall, you are as old as I am. It must have been your brother at Posner's that loaned me that big drag racing book years ago. Mike Southard was one of their sponored cars. Don't forget Old Dominion Dragstrip Reunion August 17th. And, try to make York this year. I will be honored by being honored in the 2008 York "Legion of Honor".
Now Barb, since you are so secretive where in the DC area did you live? Now the D.A. that you mentioned, was that the D,A. that almost choked to death at Indy after swallowing his gum? If so, I met you at York at the party at the Days Inn with Bob Rosetty, Lou Sgro and Joe Jacono during the York Show. If you are Barb Ways-Herandez, I met your mother at my American Legion Posty 248 (Oxon Hill) a couple of years ago. She was a dynamite lady. Speaking of Oxon Hill, how about that band going to China? That is my alumini. I callit alumini because only 82
surface into adult life in 1952.

Remember the Hurst Rambler? Well, Al Carpenter then with Hurst loaned me one to do an article on the car while I was the Editor of Drag Times. I was still working at Aquasco Speedway and I didn't want any one of the racers to think I was going to be favorite to win. So, I got John Rowley (the first person ever to buy a J.A. decal) to drive the car,after winning it's class ,Ithink it was then H/S/. He was runner-up in the eliminator and won enough for a good party.
If Texas told what Arkansas, what did Tennessee?
Why do we drive on the Parkway and park in the Driveway? Bye!!!!
