The Back Story: 

Former LV point Champ Karl Haeussel prepares for another Feature at the valley.

Second Photo: Karl hated packing the track in, as he’s doing in this timeless shot, as it got the car all messy.  I took this from the stands with my Polaroid and it wasn`t 15 minutes before when the old White water truck went around and liquidated the surface.  I’m guessing around 66 or so, he always threw-up before the race and then would go and kick butt.  He was great to watch and what great times we had at "The Valley".

Thanks for the great job, how many great memories we had there. I now live in NC and miss the good old days at LV.  Keep up the great work, Gare.

Third Photo: 1965 and 66 modified points champ Karl Haeussel is muddy and ready to run a Sunday open show aboard his Corvair bodied #900.
