Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.

-------Im about half-way sure that the 62 Impala pictured is a Corvette buddy of mines cousin. The two of them raced that Nassua blue 09/09 all over the Chicago/southern Wisconsin area for a couple of years, and did pretty well as I recall. Unfortunatly as so often happened the car ended up with a 283 and got lost. The cousin was quite a tilter of beer bottles and beat it up quite badly...........Bill S

I think his name is Rick Johnson. He currently is running an original 1962 Catalina 421/ 405 hp, super duty on the nostaliga super stock drag racing, under the name "NO SPONSOR IS BACK". He is a great guy who has been doing this a very long time. I believe he is from the Michigan area. His '62 Cat runs in the mid 10's low 11's. I have some video of the '62 running at Quaker City Drag Strip, Salem Ohio, 2000. It was the year I raced my Z-L1.
