I'm Ray C's son, Kevin Ray. I spent most of my youth with my Dad going to all of the local race tracks. Drag, Circle, Road, loved 'em all. Went to the ***berland Nationals when they were still in Maryland on the airport. Met Paul Newman when he was racing regionals at Nelson Ledges. Saw all of the Can-Ams and Trans Ams at Mid-Ohio from '68 to '71. Nothing like the the manufactures battles and the sound of those aluminum big blocks. Been a Ford man all of my life, but the old man taught me appreciation of all cool cars. We worked on his projects together when I was little and mine when I got older. Now I'm working with my boys on their projects, vintage motocrossers, to be specific. Right now I don't have any cool Hamb friendly rides (two kids in college) but there's a Ford g***er of some sort in my sons and my near future. The Thunderbolt thread is what inspired me to join and the knowledge there is amazing. Love the FE's, they rule. I've been into most anything with wheels up to and including vintage campers. So there you have it, I guess that's it.
Welcome! I grew up in Geneva. Usta cruise in my '53 Chevy at Geneva-on-the-Lake while in high school in the late '70's and did a little racing at Thompson.

Thanks, all. I love the history here. I get pulled into some of these threads and end up reading every damn page. Thanks, again.
