Hill Climbs

[newms]

My brother and I spent many days in the late 60s early 70s running up and down the hills in the woods next to weatherly and giant's despair while dad was either running his 1968 911L or we were all spectating.  I remember seeing oscar kovaleski put his mcclaren can am car into the woods and come hobbling out of the smoldering wreck with a broken leg...In those days we saw 904s and 906s and 356 speedsters all the time...plus real cobras and fire breathing vettes and the like...not to mention the many sprites and healeys and such.  Also remember speed trialing at someplace called bone stadium and also hillclimbs at hobo hill in NY state. 

I would enjoy catching up with anybody about those days.  Dad passed in 1973 and we have too few photos and memories.  He did make the cover of der gasser once in the 911 in a photo taken by vern lyle!  Hmmm...I thought I had that issue here somewhere...Anyway, thanks for the memories.
