Default Southern California Drag Racing History Collectors

Does anyone have, or know of someone..............that has collected racing results, pictures, slides, etc. from Lions Dragstrip?

In the search for the missing pieces to the puzzle on the HM L78 Camaro, we may have nailed down the name of the 2nd owner who MAY have raced the car. Having said that........(once the name is confirmed) I can then go and search for any results in programs, newspapers, newsletters, etc.

While all of this is a complete shot in the dark, I figure it is at least an interesting little project.

If anyone has a tip, suggestion, correction, a place to call, a place to write.................I am all ears.

In advance..........thanks for your consideration.

Tim

Tim,
You might try going on the H.A.M.B website and searching for Lions. You may run across someone who has what you're looking for.

Tim, I posted a link to a Lion's Drag Strip BookFace page in the CRG Harry Mann thread. Plenty of photos there, and it may lead to someone who recalls your car.
I too have been searching for exactly the same as you, my Camaro was raced at Lion's by Bruce Erickson from N Hollywood; so far had no luck tracking down any pictures, results or anyone who knew the car, but I'm persistent!
You may also have some luck asking at classracer.com
Good luck!
