From Martinsville area, raced several years, won several races at multiple tracks. Originally drove the McClure 83. Not sure of the year but sustained a head injury in a bad wreck, I think on one of the mile tracks. He retired from driving and now lives in Florida.

I believe Larry was injured during the running of the Hoosier Hundred; seems like early eighties.

Amati did drive for Shields Lumber back in the early 80's......Shields told me at a banquet that he had to relieve Chuck of his driving duties because he had created quite a sprint car junkyard behind his barn....
