Second photo, 1978 Islip 300. Crazy, they pitted on the infield. Richie won, of course. My brother and I were sitting just over the "t" and "o" in photo.
Martinsville 1980? 26 Kent, 58 Triechler, 0 Bob Mc Creadie ran a 0, but not sure if that's him, 52 Hewitt, 38 Cook, 76 Blewett, Orange Pinto?, Blue car maybe Wayne Anderson, 24 Jimmy Spencer.
Computer crashes suck, but anytime mine crashed, we were able to recover it. There is a "geek" out there that can do it.
Keep them coming Steve!

I wasn't sure of the year of the Islip race, but I knew it was prior to '79. I couldn't believe how close to the outside fence they allowed you to stand. For some of my shots, I was standing against the concrete wall outside turn 3! Unfortunately, that was my only visit there.
The Martinsville photo was taken the day Geoff and Richie crashed across the finish line. |

Actually, I think it happened once before with one of my pictures. It was 2 photos of Jamie Tomaino's pinto at Martinsville taken right around the same moment from a few feet apart. |

This is the picture I posted that was almost identical to another posted here previously. Maybe the original poster will see this and repost. From Martinsville 3/81.

Kev: You guys missed me by 1 year. The only time I attended Islip was the Sept 15,1977 All Star Race. P.S.: My "FRO" was bigger than your "FRO"!!! |

Our crew guy "Slip" was proud of his new "disc camera". It was basically a 110 camera, but the film was a round flat disc. It took tiny pictures. I bet he still has them all. |
