well, mainly motorcycle racing, but a few car shots too...

i'm currently going thru a big box of pictures that belong to my great uncle george. after returning from the war, he raced anything with wheels in the postwar years, mainly bikes. here are a few of the pics, anything with the number 66 is him. lots of early daytona beach pics when they were actually racing on the beach..

after the racing days were over, he was one of the pioneers in swordfish fishing. he also carried some "big fish" on the boat with him.
