I started racing in 89 in runabouts. The car was an old FHP four door Crown Victoria and then I went to a Torino; both painted red and white #10. I didn't win but usually finished in the top three or four. Moved up to Bomber the following year and had a red and white #70 and ran it at Speedworld and New Smyrna. Stayed in that car for about three more years. I think we ran an Orange County Red Tag(?) race together but you guys weren't racing alot when I was. My main competitors were Darrin Gould, Mike Hughes, and later, Wally Semerow. Rememember any of them? I remember the Callagy car for sure and have the 50 lapper on tape!Take it easy.jm
