    As a kid my dad would pit by Darrell at Davenport. He would have me help with his tires, I ate it up. When I started racing he was one of the guys I was truly excited to be on the same track with. Before Simmons left North Carolina he actually rebuilt one of Dake's haulers (we did the exhaust on it). Even at 30+ years old I was excited when Darrell stopped by our shop to talk.

            I enjoy threads like this when we don't any racing going on.There are some on Facebook that are real good.

              Do you happen to have any pics of Dale Fischliens car from Hawkeye Downs? If I recall right, it was a white late with purple number 22 on it. He was a favorite of mine back then. Thanks

                    Maybe Blue Grass Iowa. Start finish line on back stretch.

                      Mud I think you are right about this being Blue Grass, found this old pic of Kevin Schroeder. The only time I raced there the tree's had overgrown the flagstand and it appear the flagger was in a treestand. Gary Webb was very fast there.

                        I love seeing these pics those looked like some of the good ole days back and before my time the time I grew up around were the 90's and the early 2000's those cars to me were where I got started anybody have an of Chris Madden from around that time frame I believe he drove a White body with a neon orange roll cage and a Charter Communications as the sponsor on the rear quarter panel if my memory serves me correctly

                            Yes looking at these old settings of days in the past are priceless.
