Just awesome! I checked your dads bio. Read it word for word. Loved the pictures! I have a 48 yr old son who I think looks at me like you look at your Dad. And that's a very warm feeling. He works for I-racing (sim racing co) and a lot of his on-line racing cars are painted like or a take off of my old paint schemes. Really cool for me! Also have a daughter who raced Thunder Stocks and Street Stocks here in Florida a couple years back. I think she won almost as many features as I did waaay back when. Rett

Haven't looked over here in a while, Good to see you here, too Rettt, I just posted a welcome post over at Fred's site, I'm an administrator over there. Looking forward to seeing and sharing some pictures and waxing nostalgically! My step brothe bought and drove Roger Regath's old 53-4 Chevy sportsman that Roger won the championship in, when? 61, 62? Went to high school and hung out with Tim Lipski and Roger plautz. They went racing and I learned to play and turned to rock and roll!

I have quite a few myself, all mixed together. I might be able to recognize a track in some photos!

I know this is pavement, but I'm hoping somebody in that Wisconsin bunch can identify this car. The photo was taken at the ASA race at Milwaukee in 1981. Somebody sent it to me to identify and I can't. I'm sure the car didn't make the main.

OK, we got it! I posted it over on the HAMB and somebody from Wisconsin said it's Fred Bender from the Madison area.

I used to crew for Donn Schumann back in '72-'73. I recently loaded up a ton of pictures from my scrapbook. I've attached a picture of Bill and Donn at Hales Corners.
