    Bob Pronger

    Pronger's case is still open,he has never been offically declared dead.The talk back when he disappeared was that he made it to Mexico.The story was that John,Bob's brother was seen getting on a plane to Mexico to bring Bob supplies.John can't tell us anything,he got a knock on the door in Aug.88......................

      Bob Pronger was killed & fed to the pigs at a farm in Indiana so that there would be no reamins including dental,his brother John was informed of it immediatley afterwards , and was told by the killers that they wanted part of John's chop shop business or he would be nex talso John pled guilty to a crime that Bob committed & served the jail time because Bob had a wife & family to take care of.

        I saw Bob yesterday shopping at Kmart in Orland. He's shrunk a little now that he's in his late 80's.

    Dick Trickle - Noreen Mears

    I remember watching Noreen race in Birmingham when I was little. I remember asking my Dad if she was married to Rick! My logic as a 7 year old was that she raced cars and her last name was Mears, She must be related! Those were the days.

    Is this the car that got a flat during a red flag stop. The race started and the car just sat there. When looking he was not in it. He was found in the bar.

    Roger, we couldn't compete against you at Raceway, you had way too much engine for our little ford torino, but you inspired Scott Tanzillo a bunch! Made him drive all the harder. Hobbyfest was a blast. Illiana was serious racing, but Raceway was just plain ole fun!

    Street Stock pits

    I can still see Dan Deutshes brown #36 GTO parked right in that corner by the blue pickup. Remember how packed that pit was in the Hobbyfest days?

      They had 4 Hobbyfest races when it was first started that year & he won 3 & Sterkowitz won the other one.That GTO was fast.

    Frank Gawlinski

    I remember when Frank had 2 cars, an orange one, and the yellow one. He showed up at Illiana with the orange one, with no weight in it, and hot lapped it at 17 something!
    Before they could say anything to him, he loaded it up & left. He showed back up with the yellow one, qualified it, ran and won everything that night!
    Those were the days...

    That old # 3 later became Scott Tanzillo's #48, and won many a race at Illiana in the Sports Stock division. Two great drivers, 1 great car.
