The first two images are some more from that classic race car group. These are neither the original race cars, or are they show cars. They are intentionally built copies of classic stock cars, that actually race with each other. I do not know who the actual drivers are.
The first is a 1964 Ford copy of a Junior Johnson owned and driven car. He is competing with Vaughn Gerke. Vaughn was a local short track driver and the car is a 1957 Chevy. It’s hard to be more classic than a 1957 Chevy. The second shot shows a copy of a 1965 Ford that was a Holman & Moody owned and Fred Lorenzen driven car. It is competing with the 1970 Plymouth Superbird piloted by Roger McLuskey/Norm Nelson.
It is odd but fun to watch a 57 Chevy, 64 and 65 Fords, and a70 Plymouth compete on the same track at the same time. Sort of like an old episode of the Twilight Zone.
The last (terrible) image is another of my shots from Colorado’s Englewood Speedway. It is again from 1974 and this division was known alternately as Modifieds, Fully Modifieds or Super Modifieds. There were modern roadsters and even on occasions, rear engine cars competing here.
Enjoy and hope to see you again
