It’s September already! Where 802-644-5487 [email protected] did the summer go? I swear July has to Duane Leach-1st. Vice be the shortest month of the year, 802-849-6174 [email protected] second only to August. Forget February; its longer than either July or Gary Fiske– 2nd. Vice August. All too soon, we will be putting our cars into winter storage, and 802-933-7780 [email protected] envying those antique car owners who either live or winter in warmer Don Pierce- Treasurer states with their cars. Summer driving memories will have to carry us 802-879-3087 [email protected] through another looong Vermont winter. PO Box 1064, Montpelier,VT. 05602 Charlie Thompson- Recording Secretary One of my all-time favorite summer car memories, is of a Plymouth 802-878-2536 [email protected] Owners annual meet in the Detroit, Michigan area in 1998, which we Tom McHugh 802-862-1733 attended with our 1947 Plymouth. There was a rally from the host-hotel Chris Barbieri 802-223-3104 to the Henry Ford Museum. In the middle of the rally, we encountered a Dave Sander 802-434-8418 road closed/detour sign due to a paving project. That messed up the rally, so the organizers quickly put an alternative route together. Within Nominating committee...David Sander, Dan Noyes & Brian Warren an hour of alerting everyone to the change, the original route was re-opened. That really messed things up! So thankful that wasn’t a rally Education/ Outreach Committee that I planned. But the best was yet to come! Ed Hilbert– Chair Gary Olney There were various activities Gael Boardman– John Malinowski planned each day. We had to V-Chair Gary Fiske choose which ones we wanted Wendell Noble– Sec. Charlie Thompson to do and sign up in advance Tom McHugh Don Pierce for them. One choice included Scott Hogaboom Nancy Olney a guided tour of the Conner Avenue Assembly Plant. That Membership Secretary (Ex-Officio) was where the Prowler and Christina McCaffrey the Viper were assembled. 89 Ledge Road The Conner Avenue Plant was Burlington VT 05401-4140 the only Chrysler Corporation [email protected] plant that worked an 8-hour, [email protected] single shift per day, 5-day week. The employees there had to apply to work there and were selected from many applicants. Nothing on the line The Vermont Antique and Classic Car Meet was automated. Each car was assembled individually and pushed down the Co-Chairs line. The workers explained each step of the assembly. They told us that Bob Chase 802-253-4897 many owners who had ordered their cars actually came to the factory to Duane Leach 802-849-6174 meet them and to pick up their cars in person. The day before, a couple brought them a specially made cake to celebrate picking up their car. VAE/Shelburne Museum Classic Auto Festival The rest of the day consisted of a tour of the Chrysler Proving Grounds Chair with a catered lunch followed by a tour of corporate headquarters. The Ernie Clerihew 802-483-6871 Conner Avenue Assembly Plant tour Wheel Tracks Editor Gary Fiske was the draw for us. 802-933-7780 We figured that we [email protected] could put up with the 2503 Duffy Hill Road other tours, as the Enosburg Falls, Vermont 05450 Conner Avenue Assembly Plant visit Edi Fiske—Wheel Tracks proof-reader would more than Clark & Isabelle Wright- Burma Shave editors Justin Perdue - Webmaster compensate, for what sounded like Sunshine Chair interesting, but not Christina McCaffrey 802-862-3133 so exciting other [email protected] stuff. Welcoming Committee It turned out that we were VERY wrong. This turned out to be one David Hillman really amazing day! When we arrived at the Proving Grounds, we were [email protected] divided into groups that would rotate through several venues, we were told the rules for the visit, and we had to sign the usual disclaimer docu- Wheel Tracks printer- ments. First up was the test oval where we could drive Prowlers around Messenger Marketing, St. Albans, Vermont the track. Bill and I each got to drive one.

I could do it by myself, but I don't want to do it alone, and I couldn't use the Locomobile because I haven't a clue about how to drive the thing and it's way too big for me....out of the question.

    Auto & Motorcycle Titles Spring 2020 {IPG} The Brown Bullet Rajo Jack's Drive to Integrate Auto Racing Bill Poehler Summary The powers-that-be in auto racing in the 1920s, namely the American Automobile Association’s Contest Board, prohibited everyone who wasn’t a white male from the sport.

In The Brown Bullet, Bill Poehler uncovers the life of a long-forgotten trailblazer and the great lengths he took to even get on the track, and in the end, tells how Rajo Jack proved to a generation that a black man could compete with some of the greatest white drivers of his era, wining some of the biggest races of the day.
