Re: Taylor Chevrolet in Flemington, NJ
I stopped in and spoke with the caretaker of whats left of Flemington Speedway on thursday the 20th of May. The speedway guardrails were taken down recently and sold to an Amish group in PA for recycling pruposes. There is not much left of the track either. The place will be a Lowes hardware store and stripmall soon. We were looking for a backdrop to shoot my Charger at the time. I asked the old guy about the likelihood of your Z11 being the pace car for the track back in 69. He told me that all the pace cars over the years were Dodges until relatively recently when they went to Fords. That pretty much closes the case on the Camaro as pacecar there. This guy was about 70+ years old and remembered way back to the 1950s. I have his card if you are interested. -NJSteve
