SLADES THE OLD DAYS AS SEEN THROUGH THE CAMERA OF A.C."Skip" DUKE
Please allow images to load
A.C."Skip" DUKE burning up
the track (above and below)
79' Left lane, "The Judge". Right lane, Plummer.
Paul on Smoker in the
right lane. I am not sure who is in the left
Spiderman in the left
lane, and I think that’s Paul on Smoker to you right. Spiderman is riding
a fuel injected 750 Honda on Nitro. He was bored.
The Triumph in the right
lane is a twin engine side by side top fueler from Maryland. I remember he died
a few months later, but I will not guess on the details. The guy on the left,
was riding for Scorpion Engineering, (I Think) ,and he will kick my butt when
he finds out I forgot his name.
Spiderman at speed, on the 750 Honda
This is a brand new top
fuel Harley that blew up when they tried to start it!It belonged to the
promoter from the early 80's who did dirt drags at Slades, and bike shows too.
I cannot remember is name to save my ass. Please help. (Its not Paul
Williams)
