    Ricky you must have some photos of the first coupe that George drove, I think this one is a 39 ford, was it ever yellow? I did see a photo of it white. I am hoping that at one time it was George Brown yellow.

    It was yellow. I have a picture, but no scanner. There is a Figure 8 web site that has a picture of it also, but I'll have to see if I can remember the site.
    "A View from theCrossroads" available at www.pkbooksinc.com, www.amazon.com and www.barnesandnoble.com. Look for "A View from the Crossroads" due out in August.

    Artie believe it or not I don't. I wasn't sure. I just looked through all the photos I have and I have none of the 41 or 43 coupes. I'm sure I have videos of them racing but no photos.

    Joe, we don't have all the Figure 8 tracks listed across the country, although we've tried to put up all that we've found. However, look at the links page on the SAFER8.com site to see if the site you're looking for is there.

    If you know of other Figure 8 racing sites, drop us an email so we can list them.

    I'd like to see the car return to it's white and flames form.

    I forgot about that. And there's even photos I sent there, lol. Here's the "original" coupe. And the site is Pop's Racing Site. http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Downs/1752/

    By the way, I should have said that Pop's is a great site. Take the time to go there and roam through the photos. A little tricky to negotiate but it's worth it. Right at the bottom of the page is a link to Pops Photos. Also check out Friends. Lots and lots of photos organized by name, sent in racers and friends.

    YEAH Pop's is a great site, as is Lasheefs.com tons of Long Island photos. The white car is the one that was sponsored by R.A.D.D..

    Steve Lombardo, who runs Lasheefs.com, lives in Northern California, and is also an old Bomber driver from Freeport Stadium.

    I guess when our Freeport Bomber days are older, we don't go away; we just start websites!

    I thought it was "Old Freeport Bomber drivers don't fade away, they just blowup!"

    Sorry, Thompson World Series Weekend humor there!

    Great Pics, Rick, glad you were able to find them.
    Where did everyone go????
    www.myracenews.com also with a Facebook page!

    GET THESE CARS BACK OUT THERE!!! I used to love watching the fig 8's when they were packed fields!


    ALSO since the WORLD championship is already taken or given up why not start a NATIONAL championship race and add a lot of raised purse money to get people country wide to race!
