OK. Found it. Haven't found out why it didn't appear
in the group. It's a great story.

Hey Dan, can he post it, even if it's stale or sumpin?

Of course.
It's not that it is stale, it just meant more to me on that day.

I can remember Ollie Silva showing up once in a while at Oswego (NY)
Speedway in the 1970's.
He would come in with a car that looked like it was put together with
bailing wire and painted with a brush............and beat all the high
dollar cars there.

I'm re-posting this for Dan. He sent it to the group
on the morning of August 5, 2009, but it got lost in the
moderation system.

When you read the story, you'll see why the date is so
important.

A great story, I'm glad this was found.

This line, I think, describes every racer - from the guy who's
never finished higher than 12th in the D-main to Mark Martin
in Cup.
