Oklahoma Racing Pre 1970's
Lap #4


The 60's was a turning point in my opinion. What was called the super modifieds in the 60's soon started to become the sleek supers of the 70's. With sedans and coupes becoming harder to find after years of racing them, slowly the transition began to fiberglass bodied supers we know of the late 60's and 70's.

One of the greats, and almost always in the top 10, from the OKC area in this era was Bob Reynolds. In the 72 season Bob had a real bad crash, and it lead him to retire from racing, but continued to maintain a car for a couple more years for other up and coming drivers. One of the greats, RIP Bob.

Charlie Kammerzell drove this #66 in the OKC area. Charlie raced in the Champ Sprints this past season (2002). I believe maybe he returned to racing after being retired several years???
