    Default 1977 OPC Closed Course Nationals

    There was a time when there were Marathon Nationals and Closed Course Nationals. Out WEST we ran marathons with COBRA. When I brought COBRA into APBA with the help of Dick Sherrer and The Soares Family there was an OPC Marathon Nationals. After the WEST COAST guys started winning all the APBA Awards, OPC dropped the Marathon Nationals. It seems to me, that everytime APBA "CUT" something they got smaller. How does cutting anything make it get bigger. I cut my hair, and every year it takes longer to come back.....When Boat racing had Golden Years, they also had GOLDEN Marathons!

    You recognize any of these names? Like Smokin' Joe...Jimbo...
