Its Winter. Tell your racing life's story.

Seems like there are a lot of Keystone Raceway guys on here although I started racing in 70 at Pittsburgh International Dragway with a 1966 Plymouth Valiant that I had bought for $600.00. I worked in the steel mill in McKessport and lived right beside the new 4 lane they had built between White Oak and McKeesport and after a couple of close calls with the police for street racing I started racing at PID. The car had a 318 in it when I bought it and I pulled that out and replaced it with a 340 with a 727 behind it with a set of 4.56 gears. Nothing near as fancy as what you had John but a lot of fun just the same and one of the better times in my life. The car was blue with gold center section on the side and won a lot of races both at PID and at Keystone but in 1976 I built a home and sold my car, sorry guys I have a few photos but its been years since I have seen them. My sister and brother in-law both raced at Keystone although he was a Chevy guy, his name was Bob and he ran a red Camaro and my sisters name is Lori and she drove a rail and both of them were very involved with the racing crowd. He had a semi with a huge enclosed trailer, their kids ran mini dragsters too, ah for the old days.......The Steel City Wedge was a beast and one of my favorites. I can remember being at Keystone the day when Sox and Martin and Wally Booth in Gremlin X squared off, good times to say the least.
