dwp27: I really enjoy this picture. I don't live to far away from Darlington SC. I really enjoy going over there and enjoy the museum at the race track there. If you are a race or car fan you must stop there. They have a bunch of race cars that was used there. It really cool

studebakers1: I truly enjoy Oldride.com and all of it's different windows. It brings back many memories. I used to race on the Old Pony Express circuit out of St. Joseph, Missouri and Savannah. Mo. When I look at these wonderful old photos I think about Council Bluff's Iowa, Riverside, Mo. Marshall, Mo. Savannah, Mo. Topeka, Kansas, Savannah and st. Joseph, Mo and the hundreds of others during the 1950's through 1970's. I often wonder if anyone remembers any of the big names in stock car and super modifieds of yesteryears.
At this time in my senior years, I am involved in Orphan Classics and trying to get people into supporting those cars you do not see on the Classic Circuits much anymore unless you go to one just for a select type. I am trying to bring back the old style get togethers.
