Bob Perrin Jr. in the #22. Was this car the old #25 that Dan Brown drove? "The Pickle"? It certainly looks like it to me.

I love this picture! The racers start to arrive on a rainey Saturday afternoon. Buddy Martin had a fine and modern set-up: a racecar on a trailer and a matching purple pick-up. But check out John Guzzetta! Is he towing with a Sunbeam? The Renault racecar is strange enough, but he towed all the way from Key Largo. Ahhh, simpler times....

Dennis Butler recently contacted us on the guest book. Here is a look at his Renault from 11-13-71.

AT LAST....THANKS TO YouTube WE HAVE

FCS RACE VIDEO!

TQ's, early mini stocks and a look around the pits! Who can place the year? I estimate 1968 or so.

This footage was provided by Alton Brooks Jr. I believe his dad was driving one of the mini stocks shown. It was shot with a 8mm movie camera. Alton converted it to VHS tape, and I just got it converted to digital. Ok, so the quality is not the best, but I bet you have not seen anything like it in 30+ years!
