I have not been on here as much as I used to,as my father had needed some help,healthwise.He passed away a few days ago,and my family and I have been going through some of his things.
I found the one item I had asked my father about several years ago.It is a trophy from Osceola Dragway,where I have been racing for the last 12 years.
He won it in a 1961 Galaxy Starliner back in 1961.
I will post some pics in a couple days after I get it cleaned up and put back together.
This will have a special place in the race shop.

Thanks to everybody.
Bob,the only part of the story I have,is the final round.He raced against a friend of his,who bought the car he had before he bought this one.
It was a 57 Chevy with a Duntov cam and headers.He told me he had a car and a half on it on the big end.
