’57 to Miss 2011 Season

March 24, 2011: Today I made the decision that the ’57 will not race this season. I will continue to help prepare Chris’ Chevelle for racing and maintain the database and our racing site, but that will be the extent of my involvement with the racing program this year.

I was very pleased with the 10.602 we ran in 2010 at Pacific Raceways which may be my last time behind the wheel. – Roger Young
