Re: 1971 Ohio Dragway 42 footage
I have two pics from an old newspaper showing the Yenko Camaro on the showroom floor, and Dick Harrell standing next to his '67 Camaro f/c on the showroom floor.

Re: 1971 Ohio Dragway 42 footage
Interesting...Another local racer/enginge builder Ron Hutter owned Hut's Dyno ,TSE, and later Hutter Performance..he raced a 67 sponsered by DH Performance.At the very least the 67 was lettered on the rear qtrs (not in the usual script though).I have a few pics of a DH "Super John" car racing Hutter at Thompson.....as well as the Vega and a FG DH 70 Camaro FC.....Dick must have had some strong ties in NE Ohio.......Like to see the pic...I can post some more of the others later if anyone is interested..

I'll work on the pics, they are small, black-n-white, and blurry - but cool!

Re: 1971 Ohio Dragway 42 footage
Speaking of Drag 42, I have a 69 COPO Camaro , Dover White 4 sp that was based in New Philadelphia ,OH vin 9N666608 I am miising owners from 1969-early 80's The car was raced by Dr. Wm DeLanza (dentist) and wrenched by Mike Shane. It was raced locally , likely including Drag 42, Magnolia and Quaker City. The car is nicely back-halfed, w/roll bar. It went from white to a dark red at one point. Any help is appreciated if you remember this car. Here are the previous owners

Re: 1971 Ohio Dragway 42 footage
After it was painted red (wine color) it was not lettered. No info on lettering when it was white. I was told that the car was previously owned by a Gary Brown (used to work for Mr Gasket , doing drag events) but the name is extremely common.

[/ QUOTE ] Steve, I have a '69 Chevelle that was raced in the Canton area mostly out of Magnolia Dragway from the summer of '69 thru '77. I am in contact with the original owner and will ask him if he remembers your car. Magnolia is still open (I think it is an 1/8th mile track now), but you may try to contact the folks at the track to see if they can help you. Contact Magnolia or call them at (330) 866-1500. ] https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif |
