Cool Shot , I've got some drag racing from 1986 Super Chevy Sunday at Maple Grove but it's too long a video to post on Youtube , I'm trying to find some software to edit it .

Looks like a NHRA Points Meet at the Grove. I bet I was there. Might be Grumps Pro Stock 69 car and I see Charlie Castaldo's Mopar and even the old Pink Panther Plymouth. Harry Luzaders 32-33 Ford D/Gassers may be in the background too. Early 70's. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Now, that is a kewl pictures. I spent enough money as a kid, as a spectator, then a participant to put the kids thru college! AHH...it was worth it. That's me on the left with my former SC Lumina. Sold the car a couple of years ago to Jim Fordyce. Great guy. My brutha-frum-anuther-mutha is to my left....John Gavio. He's been turning wrenches for Bill Mayo in Comp the last 5 years w/Sal doing the driving. Maple Grove is one of a kind place to call a home track!

Which one of those guys is you..?? or were you at the snackbar... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Staging lanes of Maple Grove 70'S
 

I know who John Gavio is. I thought he looked familiar. I also know Bill Mayo. The old K+G group from Havertown, Pa. Bill M. bought Bob Keiser's old place I believe. I also think he sold his D/EA car to Vinny Barone and just runs the dragster at this point. Biondo went to the Vinny Barone camp. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: Staging lanes of Maple Grove 70'S
 

Gav is the best. We've been brothers for the past 25 years. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif
Bill is a close friend too.....can't say that about many people. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif
Bill has had my son Michael's tribute on his cars since 9/2000. Yea, Bill sold the Baretta to Vinnie for a great number $$$! and still has the dragster built by Kurt of ProStart. He built the Z-34 Lumina for us too! What a great mind and unbievable car Kurt builds. Too much politics in Comp for me.....but it's fun to listen to all the behind the scene crap that goes on. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
Here's John at Virginia in my ex-car. Really miss that car, but after losing my son to leukemia, you don't strap yourself in a 170mph car without 110% focus.... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Oh by the way............ https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...HollyRocks.gif

Some great photos! Thanks for sharing. Looks like you fellas have a great friendship that has many, many years left! In this world, there are "acquaintances"........and then there are "friends". People tend to confuse those two things but there's a whole world of difference between the two. You......have a friend.
