Chase, congrats, looked like a great time was had by all.lol
Had the pleasure of watching him race a few times in the early 60's.... Always fast and good....
May he RIP......
Really tough year so far eh? Only 4 wins thru April!!! lol...great stuff Dave.
I'll try and get in touch with his son Bill Jr. and see if we can get him to tell us the story of all the crashes that night at A-W....
As far I know Bill is still with us but his health started to decline a couple years ago. A mutual friend told me he has moved back to Sanborn, N.Y. which is a bit north of Buffalo. He was living in Daytona when he was in Florida and we attended a couple of reunion's put on by Ford Easton, one of our R/R members. It would be a blast to hear his side of the crash fest wouldn't it.....
WOW.... Now that's a finish to a race.....lol Great one Chase. thank you.
Dave, I have the weakest excuse of all. I promised the guy that bought my #20 Coupe I would come out to Speedworld and help him last night......And it was rained out and I realized what a weekend I missed . At least I kept my word to him. I'll put it on my schedule the earliest I find out when it is next year.....
Will, Sure wish I could have been there. Will try harder next year. Glad you had a great time. Did you check Tim's I.D.? lol.......
PS. He is a good guy......
lol.....only 3 yada's there mister Fulton......I'm a 4 Yada man.......I know better than to try and top the Legend.......
