Great photos from a great period in racing (for me)!  I believe the Glenn Fitzcharles driven Falcon was originally a sedan bodied hot rod.  Nice speed shot of Al Michalchuk's "mid engine" modifed at Flemington. Scott Ely

It's Billy Osmun in the #81.  Can also tell by the helmet.

I think Gil only drove the #81 on asphalt, probably in the late 60's?

Doesn't matter what kind of day you had, these pictures from the greatest era of local dirt track racing at Flemington Speedway will INSTANTLY put you in a good mood.  Early to mid 70's black & white images really awaken the memories.  Excellent group of photos!

I believe thats Bob Toreky in what looks like a former Kenny Brightbill sedan.  Jim Briggs in X15,  Also the norcia 81 was also driven on asphlt by Don Stives in the early 60s.

Bob pretty sure that's Ollie in the 21. Loved Ray in that car.Inzeo 80 came a little late like when Ollie is drove the 21. When Ray drove it the way I remember the rear of the body was tilted up like the 292 & #s were different reflective when Oil is drove it. Real ? who's in the 80, Bob,Mom is or Howie.

I think that's Bob Pickel in the 80 .I know Tiny Malano also drove that car mostly at Middletown.That car looked sharp but never won a race.
