Great Race Draws Attention on Car Forums
This post comes from jalopyjournal.com. A blogger on that site saw Corky and Theresa tearing it up in their town.
“had the opportunity to check out most of the cars [from the Great Race] today when i took a bunch of shifter knobs to the post office. gotta say, it was pretty cool. There were quite a few flathead powered roadsters, and alot more traditional hot rods than i expected to see. the old tymee racers killed me, man. Corky Coker was one of the first to come into town in his 37 buick shafer 8, and he did it in style… chariotshop, a former lurker and recent member here saw him… sideways and smokin the tires onto main street, haulin down main in front of the court house, locked the tires up and slid to a smokin stop and calmly backed into his space, changed out four fouled plugs from creeping at 15 mph to stay on the scheduled time. i didn’t get to talk to him, but it was a cool stop. lots of interesting stuff.
if they come through your town, it’s worth seeing everything…”
