With all that's going on in the world today it's great to look back at those good old times that l remember so well and miss so much.
I absolutely agree with you, Ron!
0:54 finally I recognize someone from these old photos Mike Borghi.
Great pics!, sure would like to bring back those days when everyone could afford to race and put on one helluva show!. Good job!.
I love looking at these pictures of the history of racing! It reminds me of the days that my dad and I walked through the pit at Warsaw Speedway and looked at race car and I remember how excited I was! I remember a very special moment my life looking at these pictures of the time that I met Jim Elliot in the pits at the racetrack my dad new Jimmy Elliot and that's how I met him period one of the best rates drivers I ever seen in my life! Looking at these pictures bring tears to my eyes because of the special moments that I had at Warsaw Speedway and most of all was my dad and Jimmy!
Brings back memories of my dad taking me to the races we sure had some good times and thats when race cars were race cars none of the BS that goes on now you could work on them you could afford them and they put on a great show miss those days extremely but thank you for the video it brings back so many beautiful memories!
At 0:25 the #67 is Ray Bunzy taken at what looks like Midstate Speedway in Morris, New York ca. 1962.
From jr. Absolutely fantastic race car pictures.
Thank you so much! It is awesome! I've got plenty more!
At 2:10 the #46 is Pee Wee Pobletts somewhere in Central Pa. and most likely it's a Pontiac motor under the hood.
Throwing that picture of a corner of a dirt track in there was a nice touch!
Thanks for noticing that, Gregg! Reminds me of pickin' rocks after the hot laps!
The #99 Geoff Bodine photo was taken at Shangri-La Speedway in Owego, New York in 1969.
At 0:41 the #302 is Northeast Legend Eddie Flemke at what looks to be Riverside Park in Agwam, Mass.
With the 43 billy Greco on right. Goodtimes
Holy crap Max, old stock car pictures is where it is at lol. Did you race stock cars?
Been a race fan since I was a child! My family and friends were all into racing, so I have fond memories of the good ol days! It's not as interesting to me today, with big sponsorship and it's expensive to be a race fan nowadays! These old pics take me back to when i was a kid, and hearing stories and seeing photos of my grandpa and his friend's cars. The 70s and 80s racing scene gives my good feels! Obviously, a lot of people love and remember the old days!
I’ve disliked enclosed race car trailers from the day they started using them, and I’ll use the photo of the #12 coupe at 3:40 as my single piece of evidence! If I’m driving down the road on Saturday afternoon and pass a truck pulling a white box, I, or anyone else, won’t give it a second thought! But if that red ramp truck passes me with that fine fuel injected coupe riding high and a rack full of tires, I want to go wherever they’re going! I rest my case! You DA MAN MAX!
I agree. I live less than 5 miles from a dirt track with Friday night races. Seeing these white trailers, you dont know if it carries a race car or full of lawn care equipment.
At 1:14 the #18 is Fred Harbach at Islip Speedway on Long Island
At 1:14, I don’t know who the driver of the #18 coupe is, although I LOVE his car, but behind him is, I believe, Charlie Jarzombek in the white stars & stripes #1 coupe. Think he was from NY/NJ area. Killed in a hard crash driving a modified at Martinsville, Va.
Back in 60,s we raced for a trophy or jacket some times even got money not very often just raced for fun of it at least it did,not cost as much as today l,am 72 years old and raced up in till last year 2020
Love this stuff!
3:26 Geoff Bodine WAAAAAYYYY back when!!
#77 is that Fred Royal from Chicago? Thanks for this !
It is although I don't remember him. 26 years later still miss the action track of clay. Good eye.
Chuck S A little more on Fred Royal. He did indeed start Royal pipe and Supply. They fielded a late model carrying Royal's #77 and driven for many years by Cloyce Friend and later by the likes of Ray Godsey and Bob Pierce.
At 3:39 the #12 is Gil Hearne taken at Wall Stadium in New Jersey.
Did Wall Stadium pay as good as the other popular modifieds tracks of the 70s??
@@jamiecrawford8133 At the time a good majority of the asphalt Modified tracks paid relatively the same amount, give or take. Hearne also plied his trade at dirt tracks as well. He run some at East Windsor Speedway on Friday Nights and the Nazareth half mile on Sunday. Not really a whole lot of options. If you were unhappy at Wall, the options were either Long Island, New England or upstate New York. All of those options were already crowded as well.
@@michaelmonnat5654 so Wall paid pretty close to Flemington? Never was at either track were their grandstands about the same size?
@@jamiecrawford8133 To be honest with you, Flemington had more stands because it was a larger facility. Flemington was a Fairgrounds large 1/2 mile fast dirt track with seating seemingly all around the place while Wall Stadium was a smaller 1/3 mile asphalt facility with seating on the frontstretch. I actually saw them both for the first time on back to back nights while chasing the 1970 All Star League races. They were 100% polar opposite type tracks but truthfully both tracks provided an awesome show. Also the fan base was also opposite. Flemington was a "dirty" place where fans who sat low in the bleachers had to actually wear bandanas and goggles while Wall Stadium was uniquely clean. At Wall you could have a beverage and be safe from dirt particles in it. When Flemington switched to being an asphalt track in the early 1990's, the whole dynamic of the place did a complete turnaround. I saw about a half dozen shows at both dirt and asphalt tracks and while the dirt die-hards cringed at the asphalt, both surfaces provided excellent competition.
Do you have any pictures of Bob Lawrence's race cars erase the 1970 javelin except 5 track records with it in Minnesota and Wisconsin number 44 speedy Bob
I might...fact is my archive is so immense, I'm not really sure of what i have...
Could I send you some pictures from north Carolina in the 70's of late models
If you'd like! I'd be thrilled!
@@MinnesotaMax where do I send them
@@nathanpike1908 tomosonmax@gmail.com
I personally miss the 70s and the 80s. I'd do anything to bring back racing like it used to be. It's just too damn expensive now in the average guy can't do it
I've found that "vintage" racing is back in "style", but there's nothing like the good ol' days!
