Crash Daddy Racing Blog

Just wanted to thanks to the customers that stopped by my table at the Chicagoland Auto Racing Memorbilia Show. It was fun time and there was a lot of people there. As usual, I probably spent more than I made, but I got some cool things for my collection and some for resale. The neatest decal I picked up was Liquid Tide SCCA Trans Am tour decal from the 80’s, been looking for that for a while. The other odd decal I picked up was a Darrel Waltrip Honda Volvo car dealer decal. Can’t wait till next year!

The “CrashDaddy” will be at the 19th Annual Chicagoland Auto Racing Memorabilia and Collectibles Show on Sunday, March 28, 2010. We will have decals, patches, banners and miscelanous stuff for sale. Stop by and say hello. Its great fun, they have other venders there with diecast model cars & kits, photos, magazines, cards – you name it. If its racing or motorsports related, its there. See past drivers and cars there as well.

Hey! I just finished “He Crashed Me So I Crashed Him Back” by Mark Bechtel. You gotta love that title! It comes from a comment from Donnie Allison after the famous crash 79 Daytona race. The book outlines how NASCAR came to big such a big deal and this book captures the reasons and the year it took off in popularity. I got my copy from the library, I’m sure Motorbooks or amazon should have. If nothing else the title will get the conversation going at the next BBQ!
