Fast Earl Mitchell

[cammer427]

I am looking for information and photographs of "Fast Earl" Mitchell. He was both a well-known street racer and Pro Stock driver from Paterson, New Jersey. I believe he sometimes raced on 150th near Kennedy Airport in Brooklyn, and drove a '69 Camaro for Heavy under Heavy and his brothers J&L Racing Enterprises. From the little I've found of him, I believe he was also on Eugene Coard's "United Soul Racing Team" as well.

Didn't one of these guys buy Wally Booth's 1969 camaro? I also think I saw Fast Earl at Raceway Park about 3 years ago running a pro Street type of classe. Something like a Top Sportsman class. The Raceway Park starter is a member of this Site. He may know some more info. Andrew Hinkley may be his name???

Excellent, thanks for the info!

Would this happen to be the same car?

It was also mentioned in another thread that Mitchell's '69 had a Booth-Arons big-block Chevy.
