Tim, As I have stated before, I got to see young Mr. Larson a few years ago at New Smyrna Speedway and came away very impressed with his talent and driving skills. Looking forward to tonight to see just how well he does.
I spoke with him this morning and he said he was sore but doing ok. He also had a slight concussion . A real old time tuff guy that only knows one way. wide open....Heck of a driver.
My good friend and fellow vintage racer, William Rynd of Lakeland flipped his midget racer last week end at Hendry Co. speedway. He received some bruises and a broken shoulder.
Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Today is his birthday so stay young you tough ole bird....hope you're feeling better.
Happy birthday Dave, hope there's many many more. Bill
Nigel, From looking at all these pics it looks like the # 3 car was the same car he drove in 1970 on the program cover. The decals all match on the front fender. I'm from the Springfield Ohio area and used to go the races now and then w/ Jack Bowser. I'll see if any of my old pics show the # 3 car.
Nigel, couple more pics....
Nigel, The only pics I have seen from around that time frame show Roger driving a super bird number 1 and his friend Don White driving the number 3 super bird car. I'll try and attach a couple pics I've seen recently. Good luck with your search and if I find anything I'll post it to your page.
My deepest condolences to the Pistone family. May she rest in peace.
They can change them, add things, twist them but no one can change our most precious memories... Only time can do that and thank heavens those are mostly enhanced...Enjoy your memories Tim but please keep sharing them us....Your friends and fellow racing family....
