Wasn't Cliff also known as Top Cat?

Hey Smokey! Great to hear from you. I'm still fighting this colon cancer and lately it's been beating me up... So, I've been pretty grumpy to be honest.

BTW, I cannot remember when Dad actually started racing the Charlie Alfater car - was that 1968? Also, when he sold that car and had Lloyd Shores build the last car... was that the winter of 1975? I want to say we raced the new Shores from 1976 - 78. I'm almost certain he sold everything out in 1978 because that is when I turned 16 and boy was I hot! I don't think I spoke to he or my mom for three days! LOL.

I'm not sure when your dad started running the Altfater, I don't remember it being around until the early 70's.

I was thinking that Lloyd built the new car in mid to late 74, but I'm not sure.

Keep hanging in there.
