Hey Jimmy, have you ever tried Google News and the archives section. They might have some old Newspaper scans if you type in what you are looking for. I have found many old Newspaper articles on there myself in my search for old races, pics, and stories.
By the way, love your pics on facebook. THANKS for sharing them.

Hey McKinley,

Here’s a couple of Dino’s Pizza Cougars (cars, not women)
from that era at Sunshine Speedway.

This would’ve been late 70’s, early 80’s.

On the left driving the ‘X’ is Jimmy Jeswald. Jimmy used to work for me in the 70’s as an operator.

On the right in the #33 car I believe is Jim Boles.

Just to show y'all what I came up with. We race the biggest R?c (radio-controlled) race in the world next month here in Kissimmee, the 17th Annual Snowbird Nationals. Over 600 different racers, over 800 cars, drivers from all 50 states and 54 different countries around the world! We were looking for a "fun" race to do on Saturday night, and we came up with a Figure 8 race: 2 classes of cars, 100 laps each. This is our Speed Weeks!
