SCCA National Production racing from the 1960s

[hoffman900]

Started scanning Dick Stockton's racing photo albums for an article a friend is doing. Lots of great photos of a front running effort in Northeast SCCA National racing during the 1960s to 1970 (TR4 and Cobra). There are also IMSA RS/Baby Grand photos too. This project is still a work in progress, but I've uploaded what I have scanned so far. Still a bunch more cool photos to still digitized and upload.

Kyle Disque, who many of you know, practically grew up in Dick's shop. He's the old codger hanging out in Kyle's paddock. Dick, at nearly 80 years old, is still racing - those who race small bore SVRA might be familiar with his black TR4.

Enjoy.

Great Photos many familiar names(started go to Scca events at WG in 1957) and never know when I might pop up in one as a young pup.

Wonder if the Cobra was ever repaired at that time. I know it would be today. Great pics!

I believe that was the 2nd race for the then 'new' owner. It was sold just after finishing runner up at the Runoffs to a much newer '69 Vette. It was repaired years later and sold in auction a few years ago to someone in Europe.
