    Default 1972 Alky Mationals

    I found some old footage in Super 8 mm film of the 1972 Alky Nationals in Depue, Ill. I had it converted to a DVD format and had sound added to it. There are some shots of all the famous drivers of that era, Fushlin, Walgrave, Kirts, Michelini, Anderson, Fales and the list goes on. Plenty of Loopers, Mercury's, Anzani's etc. It is in color and about 30 min. viewing time. The quality is good for film that old. I have several available for $19.00 + shipping. This is a great piece of Racing History. I will be showing it at the Eastern Outboard Racing Club Banquet this weekend. If interested contact me eather E mail or PM. Thanks Bob N-96

    Hi Ron, I know how to post pictures but not a DVD. I have some still pictures taken at the same race and can post a few. I will be showing this DVD at the Eastern Outboard Racing Club banquet on Sat. night. Thanks for the interest, it is a piece of boat racing history. I have sent out quite a few, maybe some one who has a copy can identify the driver in a kneel down "F" hydro (looks like a Marchetti) with a 6 Looper?....Thanks Bob N-96
