Re: Forrest & Horne Drag Car/Ralph Forrest/Evans Chevy
George, Man I remember that Vega, it hauled a**, pretty sure Ron Hutter built the car. They would race it at Thompson all the time, I think it was dark green with the usual 70's graphics. I remember one time I was pitted near the finish line, and the Vega was flying down toward the end, (was being driven by Ron Hutter that time for testing I think) he goes though the first light at 170 mph or whatever they were turning and stands on the brakes, trips the mph at something like 80 mph. Laughed my a** off. There are quite a few people around here that are still into racing and would probably remember where Ralph is. One being Ron Hutter. He can be reached at Hutter Performance in Chardon, Ohio. If you can get ahold of him (which is sometimes difficult) he may be able to point you to someone that might have more info. I own a 68 Camaro L30M20 that came from Evans in Painesvile, am original owner. Evans was the place in its day! I have an original license plate frame on the car, would post a pic, but can't figure out how to do it. Also, you may try looking up Dale Evans, he is Earls son, I think he's still in the area. Good luck! C
