Hey Bryan,
Welcome aboard!! We met at Island when I was setting up the “match race” with you and Paul’s ’33 Willys. In fact, one of the runs that day is on YouTube. Your car is always a crowd pleaser. Dino and I are looking forward to seeing you guys at the 3rd Dover Drags at LV. I’ll probably see you in the lanes before that @ LV with my Chevelle. Take care,
Bob “Smitty” Smith

thanks for the welcomes everybody.. Babycakes i do remember racing Tiny Eglits 55 Chevy “Hellfire” plenty of times, wish he could blow the dust off that thing and come back out to race.. your right, theres nothing like 2 blower cars blasting down the 1/4 mile 😎
Mikey, Yes, that is the same Tiny aka Bill Malcome, he has told me plenty of stories about Dirt track Racing with Robbie Green and also Jeff Hoeztler who he used to crew for also.. so it IS a small world, Tiny has told me stories of Dover as he use to go there as a kid to help a guy crew.. i forget who he helped, ill have to ask him
Man, i hope we clear up some confusion with the 2 Tinys talked about on this board, i mean How many Tinys are there? they’re all small guys too right? lol
Dino, i remember you from the Sycamore Drive Inn, and your involvement over there and different car shows in the area, I use to go to the Sycamore all the time in the early 80’s with my Blown 68 Camaro and even have some pics from there..
Miss all those good times for sure..
Here is a pic of my(former) 355″ Blown 68 Camaro, this here pic is from 1983

Bryan, tell Tiny that “Spanky” said hello! I helped Rob Green and his dad build Robs first dirt car, and I used to build his and his Dads motors. Tiny was, and I’m sure, still is, a really good guy, and a good wrench too. That first race car was the one his brother bought. It will be nice to see him if you guys go to the Valley. Rob might show up too, just to visit and see my car. Take care. I’m posting a couple of pics of my Willy’s. In the one showing the engine, you might notice that the carb fuel bowl is Green, and is a 2bbl. It’s an E85 carb that belongs to a friend. I wanted to try the 2bbl just for the heck of it. It ran 6.56 in the 1/8th at 101.778. …………Mikey 😆
