Great to have you with us, Jim. I watched you race Pro Stock at OCIR in 1977! I always liked the fact that you guys ran a Rat motor in the Vega. Why did you go in that direction instead of the small blocks like everyone else (or was that the reason?) :D

Here is a list of our draglist entries for you... let me know how what we can edit or change. I know we have a few items missing.

Welcome Jim. Good to see you here. 8)
We've crossed paths at Irwindale and OCIR years ago. I was also racing at the county in 77 that Bill speaks of. I was running with Larry Ofria of VHS. I was running in Comp. Elim. back then. Met Kevin Rotty then, as he was running parts/work of Larry's too.

Look forward to hearing your stories and lies. :lol: :wink:

Hot Tuna AA/FD

Hello
My Name is Greg Scheigert I was the ownwr of the Hot Tuna AA/FD.I was surprised to see the car again.I was looking up
Something on Google to place it on Face book and the Hot Tuna came up.Most of the information is right as far as i
recall? it's ben a long time ago now some 35- 40 Years have pssed the only thing is the driver number 214 i think was the
number of the first driven Dick McFarland From South Florida who had a Div 2 #.When there was a driver change made
in 1972 or 1973? We put John Tarzan Austin As driver.However he at that time did not hold a drivers number.He was living in
Chatsworth Calf. When he received his New driver number in Div # 7 The number stayed as # 714 As i recall.He did live in
Fort Lauderdale Fl So that may be 100% right # 214 may have been his new number? I last spoke with him in 2006. Anyway
if anyone has any pic's of the Hot Tuna or need some let me know at this time they are in a wherehouse in Greenville,SC.
I have moved back to South FL And Soon will be moving my things back. greg2pl099@yahoo.com
