Tony Mone…The hit man Glasses and hollywood smile…Happy Birthday !…Out of retirement with his new ODDJob II …Up from N.C. for last two Nostalgia Races…. …Back in 1970…One of Best Dover Duels ever….Lets set the “Wayback Machine” to that day and let Paul Cesarine Recall the action:
“Tony’s A/S El Camino versus Ron Morehead in the T/S Volvo. For the money In Stock Eliminator.
I think the records were something like 11.50 for A/S and 16.50 for T/S.
Tony could have had a sandwich and a beer, while waiting for the Christmas Tree lights to fall.
Tony caught him. Remember all the people
at the starting line laughing as the lights went down the old Christmas Tree, as the Volvo got further and further down the track. Tony launched the El Camino like a rampaging bull
(when other guys may have just said the hell with it, because hardly anyone caught that
T/S Volvo) and flew down the track (on the tower side lane) and caught him, and disappeared over the horizon. The people at the starting line went nuts when the right side
winners light (pole above the traps) went on. Nobody could believe he caught him.”
