Last Saturday was the first meeting for the 2024 Rodtoberfest, tonight I will be picking up flyers to hand out for some up coming vintage stock car, hot rod, and swap meets.
I made a run to Cario (Care-Row) NY to pick up flyers for the 2024 RodtoberFest. I also stopped by the old Cairo Speedway, which is about 5 and a half miles from Riedlbauer’s Resort Unfortunately, nothing remains of the track-
I spent Sunday at the Central New York Stock Car Hall of Fame and Mid-State Speedway reunion in Morris NY. Link- https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum...tral-ny-stockcar-h-o-f.1301587/#post-14993121 I handed out flyers to era the correct stock cars... This 34 is the real Tommy Willson Brookfield Championship winning car! It was found in a swap 25 years ago and restored the sheet metal is as found just painted, I have photos of the car when it was found. ...and the general interest car show the 58 Chevy is a survivor Kustom and was featured in a few of the little book. it is currently owned by 2023 Central NY Hall of Fame inductee "Thunder" Musson. And this cool 41 Ford Pick up I was invited to the planning meeting this Sunday for 2024 I well posts any details.
If I had the room even the garage is full! I attended a 2024 Rodtoberfest meeting today. We discussed minor refinement to the show, as well as improvements that are being made to the track surface. I made a few photo stops, including at the old Cario Speedway. This 59 Ford truck was sitting in front of a well driller. The service station is in the middle of Cario (Care-Row). There was a 63 Chevy convertible (409 4 speed) sitting in front of the garage doors for years, my Dad remembers it sitting there when he was a teenager, I remember it as well, about 20 years ago it dissapeared. The pit gate of the Cario speedway. The back straight looking toward turn 2. Turns 3 and 4

I did Leabon Valley swapmeet last week, and Albany-Saratoga Speedway (Malta) the second to last swapmeet of the year yesterday. Two swapmeets in a row I sold more than I bought, and also handed out flyers for Rodtoberfest 2024! Senses from Malta yesterday- only five months until racing season starts again. Five months for a racer is an eternity!
I had another good weekend at my final swapmeet of the year, and also had a good two hour long conversation with the legendry Joey Lawance, he bought the Aeroquip in his hand from me for mechanical fuel injection he is putting together for his street driven supercharged flathead! This won't be his first dance with force induction and fuel injection, he built a fuel injected on alcohol turbo charged (26 pounds of boost) 300 Ford six that was very successful on high banks of Lebanon Valley! Joey plans on being at the 2024 Rodtoberfest! His stories are great, and after listening to them it sounds like stock car racing was one of the safest things he did!
I spent yesterday helping friends of mine get there 33 Chevy stock car/hot rod project ready for Rodtoberfest Today I had a visit my friend and our host Dan Henke he is getting his 36 Knucklehead drag bike ready to July!
I couldn’t make Early Ford V8 clubs “Wheels and Wings” show and swapmeet in Fitchburg Mass. over the weekend due to it being the opening weekend for my club Mohawk Valley Vintage Dirt Modifieds at the historic Fonda Speedway, Dan Henke used my space to promote Rodtoder’Fest, there is a lot of interest in New England! He will be set up again this weekend at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds Rhinebeck NY. I and many of us will be involved in the will be there, please feel free to stop in, it will be nice to put names with cars and faces.
A little of Saturday night's action! Rodtoberfest 2024 falls on an off weekend for the Mohawk Valley Vintage Dirt Modifieds I think a few of the club members will be displaying their cars. I hope to have mine running, however it will not be race ready.
This in me. This is Dan Hanke white bread long white ponytail, looks for the guy who looks like Greg Allman Dan's 40 He may have his roadster, me driving possibly one or both of his Knucleheads- Another person/car to be on the look out for is Jim Torelli. Bill Benson Who could have any number of cars but these are the most likely-
