Hi Dennis. It would have been 1975 or 1976. Can't believe I didn't take notes in the those days. Too busy racing! bp

Upon looking at the Zimmerman photo again and blowing it up, it appears that the driver name was "Lee" Zimmerman. I did not remember it that way, but I could be wrong on that. I also see that they were from Columbus. I cant make out the cubic inches or whatever it says on the last line. Looks like they are saying 7 seconds at 150 to 200 mph? bp

It is Lee Zimmerman. The funniest part is that the colors were exactly as they appear in black and white! LMAO!

They ran with the NHRA Div. III BB/FC circuit through '78.

I do sort of remember that side panel being silver. I think the car went 7.30s at 188. Those numbers stick in my head, but that's no worth a crap because I even got the guy's NAME wrong! :lol: bp
