Hi Dino:
here is a picture of my drag car that you lettered back in 1992, where I asked you to put( I LEFT MY HEART AT DOVER DRAG STRIP ) on the front end. I included some photos of Dover and I have the original Danbury news times paper with the grand opening on the cover dated July 14 1961.
I was at the store the other day and was looking at the Feb 09 hot rod magazine and on page 69 it has a photo of Dover .
I haved moved to north Carolina ( the Outer Banks ) and I still race the car at the local track ( 1/8 ) mile.
I have a number of photos of Dover, I was there on May 14 1961 and also May 16 1976. geat web site and look forward to viewing it, keep up the great work
thanks Roger Garren
