  • back in action...."Wrong Way" Ray

    Ok old timers, who remembers Ray Stites? He is a veteran driver and the father of "Sideways Sid" Stites. Sid drove SLM, and who knows what else, around central Florida.

    Well, Sid has been racing karts for the past few years, and last Saturday I was at a test and tune session for the newly paved Space Coast Speedway in Cocoa. Ray told his son, "I am either buying a kart, or driving one of yours," so Sid helped his dad get in and watched him practice in a fast kart on this high G-force oval.

    So maybe "Wrong Way" Ray was not the fastest guy out there, but I guarantee that he was the fastest 84 year old around! I was pleased to witness this, and I admire his spirit! I should have taken a few pictures...
