Hi guys!!! Time to clean house and get rid of some old racing newspapers I no longer have room to keep. (Wife is on my case!!!) I have a ton of them and the best offer over $10 takes them all. You can pick them up at my house in Butler or I can bring them to Lernerville most Fridays. Here is what I have: AREA AUTO RACING NEWS..............Mid 2006 through 2009 (3-1/2 years) NATIONAL SPEED SPORT NEWS.......2009 through 2011 + about a half year of 2006 NASCAR SCENE............November 2006 to September 2009 (Not a complete set, about 41 issues) GATER RACING NEWS..........2010 through May 2011 FASTRAK..................2010 through 2012 (Maybe not complete) NATIONAL DIRT DIGEST (Dirt Late Models)...........13 scattered issues from 2006 I could just throw these out but I hate to do that when someone could enjoy all the photos, columns and the like. GOOD RACING TO ALL!! Walt

Walt I am looking for a copy of the special Car Builders Edition from 1990. I did a story in Floyd Trevis in that edition. My copy has disappeared, and would really like find another copy. Mike

Hi Mike!! Sorry, you are about 7 years to late!! I had to get rid of most of my older papers in 2006 when we moved. All I kept was the local RPM and Tri-State papers. See you Saturday!! Walt

He probably hasn't talked to you since you worked with him at Tri-City. So he knew you would jump in on his post to say hello.

OH/PA Sprint Seems like the perfect place for something about Floyd Trevis. :D

Speaking of things that haven't happened in a while, why have you stopped using your 'mercer mustang' handle? It's not like you'd get sh1tcanned for something you say on a message board, right?

I must've missed the discussion about Floyd Trevis in the original post about items for sale. I'll paste it below and you can highlight for me where I made a mistake.

I dunno but I was told Walt was going to write a book about Floyd Trevis some time ago. I hope he does because I would be one of the first in line to but one. So how about it Walt, is a book in the works ?

If you ain't live'n life on the edge, yer taken up to much room.

I did have it. All I have now is 2000 thru 2005. I gave DirtRacingMomma the 90's issues. She was going to make a scrapbook. I gave her them, years ago at one of the Fall Fest's at Challenger. I doubt ,she still has them.
