Comments: One of my all time favorite drivers and one of my all time favorite cars, not to mention Russ Dodge's hero!  Known as an excellent fabricator and one heck of a race driver, Bob Rossell is probably one of the smartest racers to ever take to the green.  Bob told me once words to the effect that if he was running third in the feature, in a third place car... rather than trying to force that car into trying to be a "second" place car, he'd rather finish third and drive it on the trailer and be ready to race the next night.  Now like I said, that's not exactly a quote, but its not that far off either.  Sound pretty smart to me...  Probably a lot of wadded up racecars were the result of third place cars trying to be "second"!

01/07/09 Walter Onora One of the smoothest drivers around. Drove with His head both on asphalt and dirt. Some of the best looking coupes around.
01/22/09 Michael Kent That set of 12 foot long ramps for that truck are still laying next to my pop's garage!
