Turbo Mufflers
 

We were speaking of Studebaker Starlight coupes a few posts back. Here are some pics of the end of one of drag racing's legends. Ted Harbit's Chicken Hawk was wrecked last weekend in Muncie, Indiana. Ted is in the hospital but should recover completely. The Chicken hawk has been raced pretty much continuously since the 50's, and held many class records over the years. Lately, still using a Studebaker V8 but now with a turbocharger or two replacing the paxton blower, Ted's been turning in the 9's. This wreck occured at the end of 6:46 1/8th mile pass when apparently an oil line broke causing him to lose traction. He flipped over the Armco and flipped 10 times, taking out the timing scoreboard at the end of the 1/4 mile. Prayers would of course, be appreciated.

Just got this by email from my youngest son with the subject line "Re: me at opening night of wolverine" as the only explanation.

I'm still L O L. One of his buds has several of these costumes and once in awhile they'll walk in a Waffle House at 2 A.M. wearing them. They always take the headpiece off a few seconds after they walk in.

I'll post further details as I get 'em... I'm taking it as a positive sign that he and the officer are both smiling.
:D


Edit... just got more info... I had emailed him: "Duuuuuude... the photo came through fine, but the story explaining it didn't! C'mon... spill it."

His reply: "haha. I went to the premier dressed up. I ran around in all the
theaters and people clapped for me. Lots of people took pictures with
me. A cop thought I was funny so we convinced him to pose in this
picture."

That looks like a lot of good men who give a lot to a good cause. Congrat's.

Who's the coolest Mason?
