Those were the good old days,
Harvey's Burger place near the corner of Jane + Keele and from there we went to the corner of Finch and Weston (Canadian Tire Parking Lot).
Both location were near the highway 400 exit with very low population back then, lots of races were done on highway 400 until the cops shut everyone down after cathing on.
I had a Fathom Blue with White stripes 1970 Chevelle SS396 for 13 years back in those days.
Lots of good memories [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

OK guys lets set the record straight
with respect to the fastest car at Harveys.
It was in my opinion Weston High Performances racing club, with their sponsored
1953 327 Hilborne injected,tubbed. M.G.It ran in the 9s.Was fitted with the first
Bob Speck turbo hydromatic trany.
One night Weston High performance ran the Shakers club
hottest car for money collected from patrons of Harveys
Jane and 401, a 1963 impala 409 done to the T---s.
Winner take all.
After dodging the cops a few nights we finally raced
on the 400 HWY just north of the Sheppard bridge.
We gave them 10 car lenghts and smoked them.
They had to weld their door shut.
No one I mean no one could beat the MG.
If I find the pics when I get home I will post them
