Yeah! Wow, that's cool. Wouldn't think that year Camaro in ESP trim could get that much air. But hey, awesome!
RIP Joe, my friend.

Joe was a very good driver and the that old Camaro was well developed. He went on to be a good road racer and one of the first drivers in the area to embrace the American Sedan class.

Ron,

We need a good shot of Harry Kline and his Mustang over the jump!

Aww, C'mon man! Harry "Crazy" Kline always flew the air like the Duke Boys runnin from Rosco. I can just picture it now a bright red 66 Mustang hardtop with the widest set of bondo fender flares that anyone has ever seen and lets not forget the Crager slotted wheels,plus the AutoWorld white number square with 11 and the classic shin burning side pipes.
Seriously, I have never seen anyone take off and land at jump with so, much force than Harry.

Rich

ps I wonder what ever happening to the Mustang?

I seem to remember that mustang tearing off one of the flares on that rock bulge that sticks out on the left coming out of the Pagoda turn.

And the crowd goes WILD!

Rich

Sorry for the hijack, I have a soft spot for 66 Stangs. My Mom had a blue 66 rag top with a 289, 4spd, with the rally package.

He has to make it fly first. lol Hey Richie that Vette(Con's old one) actually says John Halbing on the drivers side. I wasn't sure when I was going through them but looked at it with a magnifying glass and all. I didn't remember him owning it, just Con and big Al. I think the one that Ron has of Jim Oswald is probably the one hanging in his house. I took an Awesome one of him at the jump with the most air under him that I've ever seen. Only the 510 datsun has close to the same amount of air that I got on film. I can't think of his name right now. I think I gave Ron a shot of that too.

It has been confirmed that Habling did, at one time, own the Con Corvette.

The red and white Vette, is either Con O' Donnell or Allen Stitt. BTW, Con crashed the car at the jump, and moved the rock that sits on the right!

Oh Richie, Dad said he got the tree on the left. He didn't hit the right side.
