Corvette drag race cars

[Bruce B.]

The following thumbnails are a few more of the Corvettes I saw run at Dover Drag Strip in Wingdale N.Y. in the sixties.
The gray altered was a Corvette once.
The Mazmanian coupe was built after John Mazmanian campaigned a 61 Corvette. The guy with his back to the camera worked at Herbert Fuel in Darien, Ct.
Does anyone remember any of these cars?

Hello Bruce,
I had grown up in Darien, CT. Kevin Dunn is the guy who worked at Herbert Fuel. It is a small world he had just call me yesterday. He is now living in Rhode Island. The 1961 Corvette photo was that owned by Dick Moroso from Stamford CT.

Re: Corvette drag race cars

Drew, I lived in Norwalk until 1964, graduated NHS in 1961.
I raced at Dover Drag Strip from around 1959 to 1968.
Ran a 57 Chevy in J stock then my 63 Chevy in F stock for many years.
Had lots of fun and won once in a while.
Bought my first Corvette, a 58 in 1961 from DiNardo Motors on the Post Rd in Norwalk.
