this last time slip comes with a story....................this was in the final round at Oswego Raceway against Fred Lepey and his Blue LS-6 Chevelle. sorry LS-6 fans, the little 427 beat that big 454 for a nice tall trophy which he still has.....ill look for some pics at Vettefest where we had it on display......



its the tall green one to the left of the sign.......very
