Was reading the RSCA days (66 & 67) at Harmony.  It mentions that July 26, 1967 was the last RSCA sanctioned race.  What I was told is that the owner of the facilities kept raising the weekly rent on Vicari & Gaspari so they just decided to run 2 nights at Reading and ended the Harmony season then. I think the last amount they asked for was $2000 a week.

Man.. unreal coincidence! When I looked at the Wilbur Force picture from Harmony, it looked so darn familiar. I think I found your unknown photographer--she's on the right side of my picture taking a picture of Wilbur. That was from Harmony Speedway's Camera and Autograph Day in 1971. I shot my picture about the same time as she did because the same people are behind Force's car in both pics. Geez, that's neat! When I see these old pictures show up that were made on Camera and Autograph Day there in 1971, I keep hoping I'll show up in the background, back when I was a young blonde-haired dorky kid walking around with my Kodak Instamatic camera. But it has yet to happen. Oh well...maybe someday.

But I was the red haired dorky kid in the background of Jamie Tomaino's first Modified win in 1976. I wish it was a better photo, sorry. Hey, at least we're still dorky!

No pic available but I was both dorky and way overweight back then--now just dorky but continue to have 'Revenge of the Nerds' fantasies. Also, will refrain from responding to the Bristol post but we old timers know  that the kids are sharp as a pistol.
