Today is my Dad's 86th birthday, so I thought I would post this picture. This is the original yellow #11 that I took my color scheme from. This was taken in about 1965. The vehicle is the background on the left is a Hudson pick up. My Dad would trade that pick up for a Buick race motor complete with magneto and a six Stromberg manifold with carbs. The Buick would eventually get fuel injection and Dad would run that motor for almost 25 years.

What tracks did he race at Tom

[1121]

He ran mainly Warsaw (IN) and Kokomo. Later cars were white with either a number 88 or number 21. I adopted the yellow #11 because this was the first car I remember.

Tom , every time I go to Kokomo I make sure to check in with him. He alway set in the same area on the backstretch. I find it funny that most people around him have no clue there sitting beside one of those real deal racers of the past. I know and appreciate everyone one of those guys that did the best they could with the best they could afford. Thanks Lance Moreland
