Dad's been involved in Florida short track racing - specifically nothing other than a "Super" Late Model - since 1975. We started racing at Paml Beach Fairgrounds in 1975 with Bob Kirk (owner) and Danny Meyers driving (as best I can recall....LOL...I'm sure Dad will clear that up ). We've run everywhere from Hialeah to Lake City, Pensacola to New Smyrna, and just about every asphalt track that's existed in Florida for the last three and a half decades. I think the only three asphalt tracks that we didn't run a car at over the years have been Vero, Eau Gallie, and Ft. Pierce, mainly because thy closed before we really got going. We've had guys like Pletcher, Scarborough, Paul Connors, Dunkin, Ernie Bass, Jimmy Cope, Wayne Reutimann, Childers, Wescott, Randy Warren, and countless others in the cars - and we've won just about everywhere we went.

With this event moving to Inverness, where we won a lot of races in the early and mid-'80s, Dad might be able to make it up there. Last year was just too much of a drive from Vero to Lake City, especially with the economy the way it's been lately.

I'll certainly ask him if he'd like to attend He don't get on the 'puter too often.

Please send me your dad's mailing address so we can send him an invitation and he is welcome to bring old pictures, trophys, etc. to share. And if you still had the car, we are looking for those also. And if he has some friends that need invitations, send me their address also. We plan to send out invitations this year to all the people we can find. But it will be great Jimmy and hopefully you and your brother Scott can come unless you are living in the Carolinas by then. But everyone is welcome.
