Dan,
Would you like me to ask some of the racers on Sunday? I could make it the track trivia question.

Andrew,
Whats old Tony Fiel been up to lately.One of my good friends Mike King or better known as Iron Mike,use to work for him in the late 70's,he did the boring and honing for Tony.He got the nickname Iron Mike from the boys at Fiels because he use to pick the bare blocks up by himself load them into custormers cars without a hoist or help from anyone.Remenber his 61 Corvette and his 69 Camaro.

Hey there, Tony Fiel was there running his Yellow '61 Vette. I asked a few people about "The Blue Mule" and track photographers Steve Bell, and Dave Milcarek remembered the car.
