It's the late 60's at Lawton, you're hoping Wayne Cox breaks down(even though you want to be just like him), Shady goes elsewhere, and just as you're counting the money you MIGHT make in the "A", you have an 'uh-oh moment-

Over head shot of JL Nash's #5

The morning after, for you Kyle

AJ Little?

Brian,

This is the Cope/Guffey Parsons car that I refered to earlier Eugene won alot of races in this car, they were a tough team, at 1 race the starter switch give out on A Red Flag, Gene was leading so he hopped out pulled the dipstick(yes we used them in those days) out and jumped across the starter solonoid to start the motor and went on to win!! I wonder how many of our young drivers would be so smart!!!!

Aarron Madden? dokay

Long before the WoO had spare cars stored in the trailer,LOL

I know what you mean.

Now, isn't that just the perfect set of lines for an Edmunds body? That car would look good with or without the paint.

Jim,Jim,Jim

How many of these guys you recognize? #12 Evard, #6 Tom Humphrey, #79 Ron Hames the car in front of Ron is that Tim Holmes it's a sprint body but I can't make out the #, Steve Foster in the # 96. can anybody make out the rest?

Mike said this was the early days of the Tiajuana Taxi

5th car is Pat Patterson, for a short time they had a sprint tail on the Edmunds. You can tell by the bracing on the cage, that single diagonal.

I like this shot. Look at the new Monte Carlo in the background. Those were everywhere in those days. Now they're factory stocks..............oh gawd, i'm old

Brian,

In this pic I recognize #50 Bookout, #99 Malone, #33 Eubanks or Emmitt, #12 Evard, #32 Linville, #44 Lusk, #161 Cox, car inside Bookout might be #98 Walt & the red & white car I'm at lose maybe Gene Scott??

Bobby Wainscott, the old Singin' 5

Who is this?

Exactly right Brian, + Patterson has his # inside the logo of the state of texas on the tail cover.

Great stuff, I promise you I was at that race! Look how full the stands are, and the die-hards who sat in the stands down front, gettin hit with mud.

From 69' to Aug. of 74', don't remember missing any races at OKC. The 3 years was gone in the service, still made several races a year.

From 81' to 94' missed NO races as all that time I worked for the track, even did Shanes shows, motor cycle races, all the fair races, Inspections, practice, even the year we ran 2 nights a week, made em all.

Gotta love this stuff!

This guy?
