Anyone have any more pictures of this car? Driver was Pee Wee Flick and owned by the Dobrosky's.

I found a pic I took at Lernerville, I think, in 1982. This may be a shot of the Late Model. I think I have a shot of the Corvette, will have to dig a little deeper. After doing a little more checking, this photo was taken in 1980.

That photo had to be after '81 Flash, I think you were right the first time. If you ever run across the yellow 1Jr. car from 1981 in that vast collection of yours, how about sending me a copy.

I'm being dead serious , that car is pretty crude compared to some of the stuff of the same era that I have seen ..

The Firebird mini wedge was nothing special, but the Vette bodied car was racing in the semi late division in 1981. Nobody else had anything close to that in that division at the time. It wasn't nicer than the late models in '81, but nobody spent that kind of money in semi lates. Phillips was average at best, and when Mike Blose moved up to semi lates with an ex Flintstone Flyer-Tri City Buggy car later in the 80's, Phillips got his a$$ handed to him. He was a big fish with chrome wheels, an expensive engine, and a fiberglass body...swimming in a small pond in 1981.

Jerry Snyder used to have racing pictures hanging in the bar at the Bonfire. I don't know if he had any of that car though.

Attached File  _4594287717442212053.jpg   42.68KB   153 downloads This was the '80 version. It started life as a Gremlin bodied NASCAR modified. For '81, it was chopped at both ends of the roll cage. A Camaro front clip was added and the motor mounts were located like an '81 Rayburn. The rear clip was designed like an '81 Rayburn too. It had an Earl Teeters Camaro body on it and was painted like Wearing, Sr.'s car with 1Jr. on the side. Those were good times!
