Please do not send photos that have been
sent to other 'Nostalgia' sites, as the advertisements on those sites goes against my
intent.

I do not profit from other people's submissions !!! JACK'S E Mail
I DO NOT STEAL OTHER PEOPLE'S PHOTOS, AS A LOT OF
"HISTORIANS" DO, AND REPRESENT THEM AS MINE. ONLY THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S NAME
IS POSTED BELOW THE SUBMITTED PHOTOS, NOT MINE AS IS THE 'NORM' !! |

From the 'WHO'......Lyrics
from:
"Won't be Fooled again"
"Meet the new Boss...Same as the Old Boss !!"
No 'VP Director of Short Track Operations', no "Director of
TRACK PR", no corporate heads, just a short track paying a whole lot of money !!
"Clash at the Can " paid $8000 + to the winner, Billy Decker !
Winner of the "GOBRECHT MEMORIAL" WON $7000 !
Winner of the Mitch Smith Memorial won $10,000 not $300 !!
Look at what Fonda, another short track paid $9500!!

"What
it Was"

I recently sent a message to Scott Pacich commenting about a
conversation I had just had with 'NES GASMAN' about "Where racing went wrong".
Scott picked up on it , added his racing memories, along with his father's racing
endeavors, and came up with this column........

Williams Grove will continue to pay $3,600 to win for a
regular show, plus incentives for winning from outside the third row and $10 per lap led.
Williams Groves championship team gets $20,000.
They do not pay more for Demo
Derbies wins than they pay their regular racer's purse!
