     When I was 13 years old, in 1977, I started stock car racing at the Collier County Speedway in Naples, Florida. I lied about my age so I could  race.  I raced at that track until they closed in 1985.  I raced at other tracks in the years following. Some tracks in Florida and then later in New York and Vermont.

    Wow, looks like you got the need for speed at an early age. Well, all's well that ends well, it seems. You have a lot of great photos there, and judging from them, you must have had a ton of experience driving.

    Ohh! Those cars are a classic! You must have valued those cars more than ever. It’s a good thing that you took pictures of each of those cars over the years. No doubt, that it must have been a wonderful experience!
