Bob said that he ran his 57 Corvette in about 50 races from 1967 to 1972. Bob's 57 Corvette was out-muscled in most pof these races. Nevertheless, Bob was a good racer and his old 57 Corvette was fast. It's hard to believe, but driving a 15 year old Corvette, Bob finished 6th in National Points in the SCCA Northern Pacific Division - B Production Races in 1972. Bob raced Stingrays, Mustangs, some Cobras, Jags, etc. Bob also raced against some very talented drivers, including Dick Guldstrand and Paul Reinhart.

The posted below reflects only a portion of #43's race history. Interestingly, if you look at the scoresheets, you will see that Bob's fastest lap time many times exceeded the fastest lap times posted by the Stingrays and even Cobras. Bob said that his car was a crowd favorite, given how old it was while still being competitive with much newer cars. An article in the SCCA national publication "Sports Car" bears this out - saying that Bob's car was a crowd favorite at a Laguna Seca race in 1972.
