Now we all know Dinos connection with Dover Drag Strip, (BOOORAAAHH) Dino!!! Brian, our Dover Drag Strip historian is too young to have witnessed the action at DDS but his (50 cent word comming )… enthusiasum, and unselfish behind the scenes dedication to unearth people, cars , parts of race cars, pieces of track, soda bottles, …OH- staging a race with his buddies 55 on the shutdown area, …OH,-OH-throphys, pictures, magazine arcticles, spending days on end with X DDS racers and their families, is above and beyound what anyone else out there has come close to doing !! Here’s a BIG BOOOOORAAAAHHHHH for you Brian , keep up the work !!!!my 2 cents Amen ,where’s the Tylanol!!
Billy, Read It Again…His brain was going faster than his typing….I corrected the spelling and puncutation. And, It was Brian’s Idea for this Trophy concept.
. . . .This might be the place to Tell every one ….that yes, Brian was too young to race there (He was 4 when the track closed) ,his dad Did….BUT IF IT WASN’T FOR HIS UNENDING COMPASSION FOR ANYTHING DOVER ….AND CONTACTING ME BACK IN JUNE 2008 LOOKING FOR DOVER STUFF—THIS website and the “Dover REVIVAL” Nationwide on the internet ,and national Magazines would NOT have happened. Lost Dover guys reunited All over the counntry…3000 photos….A REAL RACE….Videos…Friends From Sweden To New Zealand …not bad.. all comimg from a kid looking for Dover Stuff and Sparking the Idea to spread the word on the Web, after I hooked him up With Terry O’Shea’s brother, to rescue the Start of the ODF galleries….. Thanks Brian
