I beleive the first few pics were from 95'. Reason John Hardesty was still racing the yellow Road Runner in 95' later sold to Mike Robbins. 96' he showed up with a Green Demon that later was sold to Mike Robbins also. The first few pics of the orange duster was one a couple guys from PA had that began with a smallblock and later got a Hemi. I recongnize a later pic of an Orange Duster, different car, raced by John Bauchman son of famed SS racer. John Sr is standing next to the car in the bleach box area.
Career best 8.02 @ 169 at 3050# and 10" tires small block power.

The orange duster pics are all the same car. Just at different stages. That is Steven Baughman. He ran N/A Indy motors. When it got the Hemi he painted it Purple. You are thinking of a different car, but I'm not too sure who it may be.

Been meaning to scan those pics for awhile. Finally got around to it. Now I just need to find the pics I have from the Mopar Nationals in 96 at Indy. That race probably had the most KOS cars I had ever seen at one race. Don't know what ever happened to the Mike Duke car, haven't seen that car in years........ My car is still together from last year, still need to do some trans upgrades, though. Going to try and make that Pro Max race at Rockingham in April. If you get your car together, you should try and head down for that race.

Keep in touch with me, and we will see how mine is coming. Kenny may want to go but I don't think his car is legal because of the dry sump. How is The Rock, as far as being a good track or not? talk to you soon Ronnie BTW; that Dart from Md is Alex Barionos(not sure of spelling,sorry). He ran at MIR a good bit too. Heck of a nice guy.

Don't know, I've never been down to the Rock before......I'll get ahold of you when it gets closer to that race.......Yeh, I forgot what Alex's last name was, we bought a 8 3/4 housing off of him years ago. That car could have been a show car or a drag car. Real clean car. Last time I talked to him was at the last race at 75-80. IIRC, he still has the car.

Found some more pics. The majority of these are from the KOS race in Pittsburg. I think in 2004.
