Great pics! The Jim's Speed Shop Cuda is Arlen Vanke - bought from Jim Hale. The black 64-5 is Bob Reed - yup "Bullet Bob Reed" , The Vega is Tommy Johnson Sr - from Iowa - yup Tommy's Dad.
Jim Thompso, Virgil Cates, Gapp & Rousch, not too sure on the gassers.

Hey Jack,
Do you have any of the Roar-N-Hemi that used to race there??
When we started racing at Marion he was there and that car was the BEST wheel stand car out there.
He would bring it up and carry them into 2nd and come down easy every pass. He had a powerglide in it I believe.
Someone said he has a duster or built a duster and the first time to the track it went on the back bumper and slammed down and busted the car up bad.
Do you know what duster this was and have any photos??

I may have 1 or the Roar-N-Hemi but I will have to look.

The Roarin Hemi was a SS/DA car (3800lb.)and I'm pretty sure He held the record at one time and the Duster I think you are talking about was Bill Aleard's and had one of Phil's Super Stock 440's in it at the time. He stood the Duster on the bumper (sprayed)at Trails came down to the slicks,back up on the bumper, back onto the slicks and carried it about 300 ft. Clark Rader Had a 6 ft trophy made for Bill for best wheelstand ever at Trails! He crashed the car at The Halloween Classic and built a new one. Bill sadly died of cancer and his wife Shiela has it for sale. Good car , still packs the wheels,fresh 451, She could use the money, anyone interested let me know.

That sounds like the duster but I was sure my friend saw it at Marion. He never went to the trails with his car.
Any photos of the duster??
I am pretty sure that is the same guy with the duster because the name sounds right.
Thanks For the info and any photos.

Sorry for the poor quality, my scanner does not like Vista, so I had to use my camera.

I have one of Phil's 'Roarin' Hemi' some where. It has the mural of a lion on it. I will look it up and try to scan it with my 'new' scanner I 'think' Santa is bringing! I have been going through old pics for a few days. I am amazed at what I am finding. By the way,,,it was taken at Trails. I am really getting into the old picture thing on here! Also have some of a Hemi Dart from the Mt. Vernon area. Can't remember the owner/driver's name right now, but know that Danny's (Dean) Auto Service was on it. I didn't know Danny when I took the picture, but became friends with him several years later in the dirt track business.

I spoke to Phil Roar at the Mopar Clay City meet this year. He had a 68 Hemi dart that he had just completed. He was not able to make a run because of a problem with the rear brakes. He did say the 67 was sold to a collector in Flordia. I hope he gets the Dart back out again in 2010!! He was having flashback watching Ralphie make wheels up passes in his 67!!

Phil did sell it to a collector in Florida turnkey for a very modest price of 25k. Back in the early 80's when he raced it a bunch it was a legal SS/DA car and it ran 10.0's He was very hard to beat in it.
