Default Tour of Kirkham Motorsports

For those interested in Kirkhams, I had the terrific opportunity to meet with some of the good folks there, including Joe Weight. Thought I would upload a few photos, etc.

Al,

On your second photo from the right...the stacked bodies one...I see the nose of a body that looks like a daytona coupe towards the end.

Is that what that is????
