Raceway Park Blue Island, IL. 1978 Early Season Footage

Here is some footage from the first few weeks of the season at Raceway Park (Blue Island, IL.) from the 1978 season. Late Models and Hobby Stock action. Some of the LM drivers include Stash Kullman, Ted Moore, Larry Middleton, Frank Gawlinski, Bud Koehler, Dennis Perzley, Ray Para, Wayne Para, Jim Para, Dick Raven, Pat Echlin, Tom Neilsen, Burt Weitemeyer, Jerry Clark, Tom Foust, Jerry Lewis, James Bond, Phil Randall, Mike Tobuch and more.
Hobby Stock drivers I see include Sam Gilbert, Bob Annen, Chuck Yuris, Jake Oudshourn and many cars I can't make out.
Cool to see Phil Randall & Jim Para pic up LM wins. Pat Echlin & Frank Gawlinski tangle pretty good in one LM feature. Bud Koehler and (what looks like) Dave Weltmeyer tangle in a heat race. All of this great action plus the voice of Wayne Adams. 1978 is the oldest footage I have with sound.
