Default Re: NY Street Racing - Back in the Day

These photos are from RonaldLyles.com, and were originally published in an article on street racing in Super Street Cars Magazine in 1970. The article was written by Seymour Baiz (whom is in one of the photos - white with beard and black-rim glasses) and a "Mr. Engeldrum".


The Mutt Bros bought a Sox & Martin Hemi Barracuda! (That's Tab Talmadge with the glasses on the far left, Ronald Lyles to the right of him, and Eugene Coard leaning over the front of the car)


Benny Dunham was the Mutt Bros' mechanic, Tab was a street racer, numbers runner and drug dealer from Brooklyn, Ronald Lyles was a street racer and successfull professional Pro Stock driver and Eugene Coard was the Mutt bros crew chief.

Ronald Lyles (white helmet) and Eugene Coard of the Mutt Bros, setting up a race with Tab Talmadge (also with a helmet). Tab bought a 9.89-second 1965 A/FX 427-ci SOHC Cammer Mustang from "Dyno" Don Nicholson at Englishtown Raceway in New Jersey.


Tab's '65 Mustang (I believe this is the ex-Dyno Don A/FX car) which was sponsored by the Mooney Tucker Ford dealership of Brooklyn, lining up against Mutt Bros (Ronald Lyles driving) '68 S&M Hemi Super Stock Barracuda
