Al Blixt Auto Racing History
Al Blixt Jr. spoke at a club meeting recently. Al's father was
a reporter, photographer and columnist for the Illustrated Speedway
News. Al has a really interesting site at Al
Blixt Auto Racing History that highlights his father's career
and regional racing history from the 1920's through the 1950's.
You'll want to check it out, and while you're
there, see if you can identify any of the drivers from the 1930's
racing photos. If
you can, send Al the info!

Informal Breakfast for FMRCOA Club members
Some of our members go to breakfast every Saturday morning at
the Ram's Horn located at the NW corner of Rochester Road and Hamlin
Road across from Bordine's Nursery. This is north and east of Auburn
Road. If the weather is nice we usually have quite a few antiques
and hot rods. Members usually show up from 6am until 9am.
