Here is another one..rember you cant find these in a book or look them up you got to know....how did the green hornet get taged to ED why was his cars green.

I think he painted his cars green because everybody was superstitious about the color green on racecars.

[Don Nerone]

Nope
I though that some of the old LM racers were on here??
Ed was so cheep that they were white for years and he told everyone it was lighter when it was cheeper back then. He went to a action and bought 500 gal of green paint cheep so his cars were green.

OK
how about that Port city car with a golden racing engine?
I love this you cant look this stuff up on your coumputer you got to know it.

i'll take a guess at butch miller

[Don Nerone]

i'll take a guess at butch miller

We have a winner.
When he won the race we asked him who built the car and he said a friend then he made up a name Port city. thats the name of the town .
The golden engine was a new one . he had beel sponsored buy prototype buut they were having a race in ga and buitch was told to go to ga or else.. he took the or else.

good guess

Was that the year the Triple Crown went to Orlando, Sunshine, and Desoto? I think I was at all 3. What a blast, and the way a Triple Crown should be.

[Don Nerone]

1986
Butch was winning the race in hieleah and ran out of gas but jummy Cope pushed him on the last lap. Butch won the tripple crown that year. Then at the pay window butch traded pay with jimmy.
Its hard to find racers that will act like that now days..


to old to rember.

new one
who are the names of 3 drivers that won sprint and SLM races on the same weekend in florida
1 of them did it on dirt and pavement

[Frasson118]

My guesses would be Donnie Tanner, Dave Scarborough & Wayne Reutimann

[Don Nerone]

My guesses would be Donnie Tanner, Dave Scarborough & Wayne Reutimann

The first 2 are right bit i think the 3 rd won was Jim Childers.
Wayne might have but not in my time.
He won a lot of sprint races but not a lot of SLM races.He did win a few of the big ones,
opps now you make me think..yep and i was there!!
there were 4 drivers .

I thought off Wayne when you said dirt AND asphalt. He won a lot of LM races at East Bay and also won a bunch with TBARA with the Sprint. Back when they ran both Asphalt & Dirt about evenly.

I was thinking of Donnie. Goldengate TBARA sprints at the gate on fri and dort LM eastbay on Sat.

OK, here's one, Nerone might know since it was his track...LOL...

Who was the only driver to win in *three* different divisions on the same night at the same track, driving for three different car owners?

[BVS40FL]

Wild guess

Probably Scarborough. But that is just my guess
