Asphalt Modifieds 

• Jolt'n Joe Orso - and the Scream'n Six. This was my favorite on the Fulton/Brewerton circuit when I was a kid. The car was # 96 and the scream'n Six referred to the six banger under the hood that beat all the flat-heads back then. Owner Andy Susco sent along this image and said... "it was a very fast car. We won a lot of races with this car. In 1964,at Fulton speedway,we won every race that we finished, heats,semis,and features." (127 kb)
• Flathead and six cylinder modified action from the old asphalt Brewerton Speedway... and here's more.
• Mike Zopp/Dutch Hoag - This is a 1965 modified feature with Mike Zopp in Wes German's potent Broome Heating modified beating a newly arrived Dutch Hoag of Bath, NY in the Turner Brothers coupe. Shangri-La where this picture was taken had offered a bounty in 1965 on Zopp after he had won several consecutive features at the Owego facility. Dutch collected the $500 bounty the next week breaking Zopp's dominance at Owego. Of interest German was one of the first to use Grand National (now Sprint Cup) motors from the Ford factory team of Holman and Moody. These were motors that had run 500 mile races and resold to other teams. This 04 had a giant 427 CI Ford under the hood. (66 kb) image and description courtesy of Gary "AJ" George
• Billy Rafter -or is that Dave Lape... along with Lou Lazzarro and the Shampine mustang seen here lining up for the 1967 Fulton 100 spring race. (66 kb)
• Lee Osborne's -"Orange Crate" coach leads Dutch Hoag and Wimble (rough, but worth a look). I believe this and the following two images to be from 1967. (32 kb)
• A much better shot - of the Osborne #81 taken by John Grady at Albany Saratoga. (89 kb)
• A much better shot - of the Turner Bros. #18 also by John Grady at A. S. (88 kb)
• The coupes scatter - on the front straight of the NYS fairgrounds in 1968, as seen from the old grandstands. (36 kb)
• Dick Clark's -neat mustang at Fulton (April 1969). (74 kb)
• Dick Clark's -Coupe... (43 kb)
  Dick's son, Duncan says this is the same car (chassis) as the Mustang pictured above. Duncan went on to say..."Dad did in the Mustang in a crash at Wall Stadium in an All Star League race later in '69. Up until 1970, we only ran Fulton a couple of times a year, usually early in the year and late. NASCAR used to frown upon running "outlaw" tracks. Dad drove for Hugh Hedger, and we were regulars on the Malta-Fonda-UticaRome circuit. In 1970 we followed Richie, Sonny Seamon and a couple of others to become regulars at Shangri-La and Fulton. Dad won his first feature at Fulton in that coupe in '70, and another one in '73 in a Barracuda."
• Dutch Hoag -at the "Fulton 100" in '69. that's Bobby Merz alongside. (51 kb) You can read a great article at stockcarracing.com about Dutch and his Langhorne adventures.

The ride didn't last long as Zautner was not impressed at the time and told Richie, "get out out from behind that wheel, you will never make a driver!" This rare shot was taken at Albany Saratoga Speedway by the equally legendary John Grady. (85 kb)
• correction.. Ted Renshaw -... not Roy Makinson I am told, at Fulton. I have learned that this is the former Lee Osborne built orange crate #81. It was driven by Jackie Evans at Langhorne and then sold to Renshaw. (47 kb) I have now learned that there were actually 4 Osborne coaches:
  *The offset motor asphalt car from '66-'67, that won all the races around this area was sold to Bill Sandman, who converted it to a Dirt Car.
  *There was a dirt sedan purchased from the Bill Wimble team (McCreadie?) - I think that was only raced 1 or 2 times and sold again.
  *The dirt car Lee built (1968) - Won at Lebanon Valley, Waterloo, Monroe County, etc. - this one had the 'shortened' front section on the body.
  *and the Jackie Evans-Renshaw Langhorne car (1968)

• Bob McCreadie -at the OSWEGO PORT CITY 150 in may 1978. I have never seen another color pic of this car. Bob also won the last ever blacktop race at Fulton with this car in 1978. Most people know Bob McCreadie as a dirt driver, but he ran well on blacktop too. Have had a few arguments with people who say he never ran blacktop until I show this pic. (from Mike Burley)
• Evans again - Photographer John Grady told me Richie was sporting the beard because of a bout with chicken pox. 1980 or '81 maybe. (87 kb)

(77 kb) - Alan and Tico Conley debuted the Troyer's Mudd Bus #1 at Canandaigua in the spring of '81 where they smoked the field. The next day at the Wheels, Alan put the car in the wall in a heat race, but they got it fixed in time for Alan to again dominate that day. Mudd Buss numbers 2 and 3 went to Danny Johnson and Will Cagle: Cagle's being something of a surprise as he typically built his own cars and Troyer feared he might copy this design. Merv Triechler also got a Mudd Buss late in the season and proceeded to lap the field at the Northeast 150 at Weedsport that September. A month later that car took him to victory at Syracuse. Last I knew, Mudd Buss #1 was sold to Canada's Harvey Hainer, but I have no idea what happened to it after that.

That is the number 99 of Phelps on the outside of Craig Keel. Cricket did an outstanding job with that car!!! We were/are good friends with the Keels - Craig's Mom would sit with our group during the races. His dad Dan would call us several times a day with racing info.
  Anyway, that is actually my second modified - a Buck Buckley built chassis (from sprint car fame). We really struggled with that car on Glen's circuit which were usually dry and hard tracks. Jack Johnson sat me down and said we should run the Brewerton-Fulton-Evans Mills circuit because you could run a tire that would help get it hooked up. Jack was right. We won the points at Evans Mills, were 2nd at Fulton and I believe 4th or 5th at Brewerton.

Odds & Ends 

• The Hurst Floor Shift Special - 1964 Indy: Smokey Yunick showed up at the track with one of the most radical cars ever to enter the 500-mile race. Called the Hurst Floor Shift Special, it featured a catamaran-like layout with the driver placed in a pod adjacent to a second pod containing the engine, front and rear suspension, fuel tank, and radiator. The car was practiced by Duane Carter but the driver was to be Bobby Johns. Unfortunately, Johns, the guy who almost won the Daytona 500 with Smokey's Pontiac in 1960, had trouble adjusting to the car's handling characteristics and eventually backed it into the turn one wall during practice for the the last day of qualifying. The car was too unique for the Indy folk and was was outlawed and never allowed to compete. (114 kb) all photos by J.D. Ellis
