Never knew Herbie Tillman ran Wall Stadium.  I don't like bringing up a "dark part" of a drivers past, especially since I liked Herbie.  But I'll bet this Wall photo was taken in the very late 70s or 1980/ 1981.  The timing is important as Pee Wee Griffin, Gary Balough and Herbie were all arrested in 1981 on drug distribution charges.  I recall that Herbie was running a very classy looking Chevette (much like Frank Cozze's) on dirt and I found that strange as Herbie never really had 1st class equipment.  There's a photo of his Chevette in the 70s section, page 150.  Comments on the  photo estimate it was taken in the late 70s/ early 80s.  Unless Herbie  their debt driving for someone, I think I know where the cash came from to buy these 2 beautiful hot rods.  Don't get me wrong, the boys tried the "easy money" avenue and it didn't work out, and they all did jail time.  Still, I always liked, and rooted for those "rebels".  Scott Ely
