If he ever lost a race it was because he was trying to smoke rather than drive

I watched Don at Pomona Fairgrounds many times. One could count on a great contest when Don was involved.

Back in 76 I did not know of Bill Jenkins or much about pro racers for I did my racing on the street with a ex bracket 68 Z28 that two brothers bought, no consoles, no hidy lights no extra weight. They broke the motor. The motor was not salvageable and they went and bought a 70Z again as a bracket racer. The shop that they used was my friends who bought the 68, sourced a 70 LT1 and modified it. More compression, cam, head work, etc. I bought it from them for $2500. Watching Bill shift brought back memories for that is how I shifted it. 7,050 rpm all day and night. One tough car and motor

The GROUP gets the credit for the title "One Hit Wonders", not just the lead singer. So whether your playing an instrument or singing backup, it's yours to claim!

Most of the street tires we have now days. Are better than 90% of the racing tires in the 70s. This was before Radial tires. Those bias ply tires were really were terrible. When a friend told me to try a pass with his Mickey Thompson cheater slicks. On the way home I stopped at Mickey Thompson's Warehouse harbor boulevard in Santa Ana two blocks from my house and picked up all the traction I needed.

The only reason any Chevys had a chance at winning was because the HEMI cars were first penalized with 200 lbs, then they mandated 400 lbs!!!

Summer of 68 I saw Grumpy run at a drag strip in northern new jersey. I was walking through the pits and was walking by Grumpy’s Camaro . I looked underneath the rear of the car and Grumpy was underneath looking at the rearend where the driveshaft connects to it . He said something to me explaining what he was checking. I was a big fan of him and at 16 I was surprised he spoke to me . He wasn’t Grumpy he was really a nice guy . He remains my favorite racer to this day .

Im 32 and wish i was born or able to time travel to back in the early days of drag racing and stock car oval track racing where your average guy can build a nhra dragster or nascar cup car and go race agaisnt the best of the best i. The nation. I am friends with a guy that was part if the Alabama gang in oval track racing back in the day and he has his nascar latemodels and nascars that he buolt and ran in the 60s and so on and still races to this day and his 69s-78 cars all have a cigarette loghter like the old school one you push in and it gets really hot and you can light a cig and he would smoke a cig while racing stock cars and drag cars back in the day and even the 5 nhra super stock cars all have cigarette lighters in them as well so he can light his cig while waiting to do his burn out and smoke while he is going sown the strip with a cig in his mouth doing close to 140-200 mph depending what car and what class he is racing in that day.

Beach Baby is a great song. The inspiration of course was the Beach Boys. And of course the song itself is a kind of tribute to the Beach Boys and that musical period which included plenty of "surfer" music.

He didn't sing on The Flowerpot Men - Let's go to San Francisco. It was John Carter's voice, who also wrote it. Tony Burrows replaced John Carter in The Ivy League 1966

John Carter wrote and recorded the song "Let's go to San Francisco" with his own vocals on the record. John Carter then created a group for TV appearance and touring, with Tony Burrows appearing as lead singer on the song which Tony didn't even sing on the actual record, but miming to John Carter's voice on TV.
