This is another of those events I would really love to attend. I really need to get to work to get a sponsor for "The Legend" to make these appearances. I can guarantee any potential sponsor that you will be getting the best marketing man in the country for your product! Only condition is that I must believe in the product or I won't give my endorsement no matter the money! lol. Nothing shameful in that remark huh?

But seriously, my memories of Curtis Turner are some of my best memories but having gotten to somewhat know Margaret Sue from the events we have attended together, I know whatever she does is first class and worth being there. Thanks, Margaret Sue, for keeping your father in the forefront of racing history where he belongs.

What a change! It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm quite surprised. It may take me awhile to figure it our but first look it's really great.

Looking for information on Curtis Turner nickname "Pig Iron from Virginia".

A 1955 Speed Age Magazine race reporter wrote an racing article on Curtis Turner and used "Pig Iron from Virginia." as his nickname.

thanks for any information given.
