I was the track photographer at Dixie at that time. I guess you have grown up a tad since then!! I hope you have enjoyed the photo through the years. I enjoyed my time at Dixie, Rome and West Atlanta. I have several photos of kids riding with the drivers during a prerace lap.
I will try to post a few along. Supper time, better go!

Swamp Ginny
The photo of the Chevelle that Buck drove reminded me of earlier days and I wondered if anyone could tell me who was the driver of the cars that said "Swamp Ginny" on them. That was an advertisement for the Swamp Ginny resturant.

thanks for posting, I couldn't remember. Earlier there was a '55 Chevy with Swamp Guinea on the side aslo if memory serves me right. Long time since we would race at Cummins, Hartwell or Lavonia and run into different folks than the mountain tracks.Originally posted by PaperMen View PostThe #007 Swamp Guinea was driven by Rudy Boroughs.

Doug Kenimer
Doug is what we used to call "good people". He was (was, because I haven't seen him in years) always friendly and enjoyable to be around at the track. He once had a Chevelle that had a trailer hitch on the back bumper, it had been on there when he found the bumper, he said that since he had added that bumper seemed like everyone wanted to hit him in the rear.
