I talked to Spiro's brother and he told me that he is OK.

I saw Spiro's "new" 69' Camaro at the Nov 2007 Chevy Vette Fest....

I gather this wrecked car was even newer than that one.....

Curious to read more about the man and how he might fund some an expensive endeavour ???????

yes this was his newest car.... a twin turbo car. all his cars are black w/ yellow stripes and are flawless. and as far as funding.......pappas trucking....but im sure he has some backers. along with the passing of his wife too. about 20 years ago he was a very heavy hitter in the street racing scene.

His company does more than trucking. They do excavating, demoloitian, sewer and foundations. He has done very well for himself.He started out with one truck and built it from there. He actually has three cars. Check out his web site www.spiropappas.com. I don't understand the comment about his wife passing?
