Sweet: I am new to the HO stuff. I don't know if I will change my name to "Vintage 1/64", but I was really impressed with some of the builds going on in this section, and your stuff in part inspired me to build "something".
RichD: Again, I am enjoying all the of the HO content you have put out there - but that museum pic was really really well placed! I post the #15, then the next post is the #3, and then you have both of the real cars in the same shot!
And there is an interesting twist here. One of the classic "what-ifs" heard around oval tracks everywhere is the question of car versus driver - What could my favorite driver do in the other guy's car, and what would the other driver do in my guy's car?
Not sure how many are aware, and I am never sure how "local" all of this is, but in 1971 there was an interesting twist.
In 1971, Bugs Stevens and his pal Fred DeSarro made headlines when they switched rides – Stevens went from blue #3 to the white #15, while DeSarro went from the #15 to the #3. Turns out it was not really a big deal, they each just kept on winning!
