mtrigg Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 I have a few pictures of the three of those cars. Just moved and will have to find photos. Most are 80 to 84 time period. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Thanks for the reply Mike. I don't envy you at all having to go through a move. Hope that all works out well for you. I look forward to seeing the pictures. Did you know John or just see him race somewhere? Thanks Again! Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google Watson's Automotive on Hwy 349 in Midland. I had not even thought about that Tom! I have not had any contact with Jay since 1982 or so. I'll do that. Thanks for the suggestion.

mtrigg Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 I knew both John and Jay pretty well. My first late model was an ex Foster car, Pete Hamilton leaf car. Try find pics soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get ahold of Jay, he will also know how to get in contact with John David, Jess Arnold, Linda Foster, and all the rest of that bunch out there. I knew both John and Jay pretty well. My first late model was an ex Foster car, Pete Hamilton leaf car. Try find pics soon. There were a few Pete Hamilton cars that got to Texas, Foster had at least one, J.D. Hughes ran them for awhile. One or two of the Hughes cars ended up with Johnny Gray from Artesia, N.M.; the same one running NHRA funny cars today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Guys! I think i have some pictures of John Foster's race car taken in 83 or 84 I'll try to find them. By the way John foster could scare the hell out of a fast race car.

FlatBlack84 Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Johnnie used to run occasionally at Arena Park Raceways in Lubbock back in the 70s. If I remember correctly, he ran No. 99 and the car was a dark maroon. Foster was fast, very fast. PS--I'd love to see some pics too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
