I will go back to the start of this thread and read it from top to bottom, (as well as a few other threads that I noticed when looking for this thread to respond in).
I get a chance to talk to Curtis every now and then, but other than that, the faces in the industry has changed enough that I don't get to talk to many of the "old school" guys these days. I was searching for the "Top 10 Crash and Burn" spreads from Dean's old mag when I happened into this site, and when I found some of the articles from "the day" it caused me to stop my search for the shot of Glen Isles SAILING over the top of the second camelback top, in the old Columbus Ohio National......(my understanding is that shot made the "Top 10 Crash and Burn" shots for all time)....but as much as I wanted to see that shot again, the thought of reading/posting about the the "old days" with people who ACTUALLY REMEMBER the track at Boyd, Texas......the Nationals at San Jose and Saddleback, the OKC WinterNationals, proved too good to pass up.
I talk to your brother on occasion, but I can't remember the last time I had a chance to talk about the old days......I'm kind-of looking forward to bringing out a few old memories.
Talk to you Soon Mike,
