This Week
Ron Bouchard's Vintage Auto Show

Was unable to do much last week because of problems with the "High Speed" Internet Connection which is supposedly fixed, after they were here three times last week. But anyway, the place to be on Saturday September 23rd will be Ron Bouchard's Auto Store in Fitchburg, Mass. for his annual Vintage Race Car Show. On Hand will be the NEAR Hall of Fame Mobile Museum along with a host of vintage race cars and not so vintage drivers. Former drivers and Hall of Famers who have been in attendance in previous years include of course Ron besides Kenny Bouchard, George Summers, Ray Miller, Wild Bill Slater, Bugs Stevens, Leo Cleary, Billy Harman, Beaver Dragon, Pete Hamilton and a host of others.

Thirty-five years ago in 1971, the Modifieds and Busch Grandnationals shared the twin bill at Martinsville. Ray Hendrick was the 250 lap GN winner. The modified 250 saw on of the biggest wrecks ever as over a dozen cars piled up in turn four in the closing stages. Sneaking thru and taking a surprise win was popular Bernie Miller from Cannestota, N.Y. Jimmy Hensley finished second. Bobby Santos finished third and was followed by Leo Cleary, Jerry Cook and Mike Loescher. Fred DeSarro was the defending national champion and the outside pole sitter.
