Roger Young’s ’57 Chev – Pro Bracket

Taking a look at the long history of our ’57 from the early 70’s when we were running F/Modified Production to 2012.

None of this would have been possible without the many years of support and hard work from my entire family.  It has been a fun ride!

Enjoy the video! – Roger

    I remember that final round like it was yesterday, it was a very fun weekend for sure. We always have fun up at Mission as the hospitality up north is superb, hopefully we will make it back up their in the near future. Love, Paul

      Hard to believe it was 11 years ago!! One of those HOT weekends at Mission and the Loafers race is always fun!

      In that final round, the Corvette lost fire on his water burnout but we waited for him. And he cut a terrible light and I went red by -.008. Would have liked to have that round back! 🙂
