Comment: By the time the early to mid 70's rolled around...
(1973, 1974... 1975) modified sedans had been added to the endangered
species list.... Craig had a good reputation for driving the sedans
having been victorious in Matt McMann's purple #3 in 72 and/or 73... and
then going on to win feature events in his own "Ah-Dyn-O-Mite!" #301 around
1975 or so... and at some point, he also drove the Lou Inzeo #80 sedan as
seen here at East Windsor in possibly the 1974 season. In the background I see the Norcia #81 which I'm not sure who was driving at this point... (Billy O drove it earlier in the 70's... Sammy Beavers, Stan Ploski, Joe Hall and possibly Paul Fitzcharles were some of the other drivers that took a turn behind the wheel of the #81 Coupe at this time.) to the right of the #81 it looks like the roof of the #707 Big Donkey, which also at this point might of had a list of drivers behind the wheel... then it looks like Charlie Shire possibly, and then alongside of him, it's Pee Wee's #72. Looks a little like Pee Wee leaning up against the roof of the #81, but I can't tell for sure. |

See the name Kenny Poffenburger on the top rear of the roof, I knew Kenny from Island dragway, he ran a Corvette, and he worked at a big Chev. dealership in maybe Parsippany? well anyway, Kenny built some big blocks and he even used them in his fuel Funny car. Kenny was related to Pete Van Iderstein by marriage. |
