Peoria Oldtimers Racing Club

Raced from 1970 to about 1976 and very limited after that until 1981.  I could only run on Saturday/Sunday due to job responsibilities.  I ran at Peoria, East Moline, Freeport, Champaign, Springfield fairground, and a couple of other tracks.

As a driver/owner I had to start giving it up in the mid 70's when the manufactured chassis started taking over due to the escalating costs to a single owner.

I have got to say though when I started racing in 1970 I had one of the best pit crews anyone could have.  It was made up of George Hall, JJ Janovetz, Chuck Duncan, Mike Crowley, and later Clay Parker and Don Copple and some others.  We never gave the pit crew enough recognition in those days.  without those guys the car would never have been ready.
