04.07.10 | George Perkins | What a great looking car. It jumps right out at you even in the thumbnail! It's number 11, no question about it, unlike so many of today's cars that take ten minutes of staring at them , sitting still to figure out what the number is..........never mind all that clutter in the background. Wrap guys, just because you have fifty eight designs at your disposal it doesn't mean you have to use all fifty eight on one car. |
04.09.10 | Charlie Miller | What a great story! Another fine example of one of those stories that would never be covered in the newspaper, but should NOT be forgotten. Thanks Russ for remembering this for us. Ralphie the racer was pretty much slowed down by the time we started going to the races in1965 , but Ralph always seemed to pick up a ride here and there as the seasons rolled along. |
12.08.10 | Nicholas Marcigliano | In the upper left of this photo is a maroon sedan entering the pits. I'm almost sure this is the K-1 from Staten Island driven by Jake Goodski. This was the first stock car I drooled over as a little kid. My dad and uncle took me to Weissglass Speedway for the first time around 1960. The K-1 was housed at the gas station down the corner. I would ride my red and white tricycle over there and watch them work on the car. I numbered my trike "K-1" with white crayon. I was HOOKED!!! |
