Lonnie Kaiser was my uncle. Watched several of both Lonnie and Jim Kaiser races between 1964 thru 1971 before work in San
Jose and family kept me away. Miss it. Watching Ocean Speedway just is not the same. Last viewed Lonnie
racing sprint in Petaluma in 1994. |

I came home from serving in Vietnam and learned about Vallejo Speed Way from Carl DelGrosso who did a lot of lettering and
pin striping on the hardtops. I think Carl told me he was dating George Acers daughter. George was I think the promotor of
the speed way at the time. My partners and I had our C/Gass 39 Chevy coupe at Carls getting pin striping done and lettering
Carl sponsored us. He made arrangements for us to use our coupe for the trophy car on Sat nite. We couldn't use it because
our slicks didn't have traction on the wet track it would just spin and go side ways. We showed the coupe at the front gate
before you went into the grandstands. ''Vallejo Speed Way Rocked'' I miss it with great memories of the best dirt car racing
I've ever enjoyed. |

In 1966 I bought the car that Tony Magzanti drove for Bob Kaiser. He had just built a new car for Julian Castro to drive.
After that John Henry drove the car. I raced the car I bought from Bob for 1 year and built a new one the year we could run
the over head V8s. It was great memories looking at the photos and remembering the good times at Vallejo Speedway. |

It brought back so many times in my life. I was with Frank Blado many times from the time I was born and he stayed with me
when he was helping to build this race track. Frank died in Texas in 2000 and the night before he died he told me that he
was my father. I always called him Uncle Frand and his wife Aunt Ruth even though I knew he was not my uncle
Thanks for honoring him for his contribution to the racing industry

I raced with Jim in the SCCA. I told him over and over and over again, "Jim, you have the wrong car. It is not competitive
in this class." I guess Jim didn't understand. He just went out and continued to win and win and win....... |

I am happy to see you and your family are doing well. I spent so much time up and down California at the race track with
my daddy. Especially the Vallejo Speedway. I was so sure I would be the "Pretty Girl" giving out the trophy someday, ha
ha. It took back to those days which I have not thought of in years. Hope all is well with everybody. Everybody looked
good in the pictures. Congrats on your success! |

My dad raced a '55 Ford stock car #102 from 1969-1972 at Vallejo. The pictures brought back a lot of memories and names from
back in the day. I went into the Air Force in Nov 1971 and did not get a chance to see any more racing at Vallejo since
it closed before I retured to California. Sure miss the number of cars that would show up every Saturday night. I can remember
seeing 50- 60 cars in both the modified and stock divisions. I still go to USAC sprints and the Supermodifieds but the crowds
are not the same...so few cars show up any more also. Great Site thanks for keeping racing alive. |

Great memories. I hope you check out westcapitalraceway.com for the up and coming all american vintage classic ii at the all
american speedway in roseville. i heard you guys bought a hardtop and are restoring it, you should bring it out for a static
display car, or does it run? I could get on the track as we have 18 hardtops running. For information call Bonnie 707-254-8775
The Okie Bowl Hardtopper will be showing old Vallejo movies in the pits Friday. night. Hope you all can make it. Bonnie |

I remember watching all of the Kaiser's race through the years at Vallejo Speedway. Every one of you guys were fun to watch
and root for. My only regret was that I was not around between the years of 1968 thru 1972 (war called) to watch any racing
and by the time I got back to the states, out of the service, things had already started to change at Vallejo....new cars,
new rules...being gone for so long, it was too much of a sudden change for me to take in. I lost some interest in racing
at the time and finally the speedway was closed down. My dad took us to the races every single Saturday night from about
1959 thru 1968 (for me), but he continued to go during my absense. I appreciate all of those of you who have contributed
their collections of racing at this great speedway, and I look forward to seeing more of them in the future. |

Hello Alan and Jim. I found your site on the old "Vallejo Speedway" page. It was really exciting to see the photos of the
"Kaiser Boys" during the Vallejo days. My teenage years were enjoyed by watching the Kaiser brothers, Chet Thompson, Larry
Damitz, Julian Castro, Rich Govan, and Dave Logan slinging dirt. Speed Reilly and Joe Valente were legends too. My hero was
Del Quinn. He opened the door for what I now have been doing for a living for 35 years. My first big sign painting project
was lettering his race car in '66. Although all lettering today is done in vinyl I still get an opportunity sometimes to hand
letter a race car like in the old days. Del started racing again in '98. With him in Concord and me in Texas we got connected
again and I would fly out once a year to watch him race. Del past away in '01 after he raced in a main event in Hanover. He
had a massive heart attack after pulling in the pits while still strapped in his seat. The good Lord blessed him with a final
ride before he checked out. I still miss him today for he was a great friend to me. I hope all the "Kaiser Brothers" are doing
well. Thanks for reminiscing some great times. Good luck to you both and it's great that you are continuing the family racing
heritage. |

Great Job Guys! Jim, Alan, Iam about your same age. My dad ran a stock car at Vallejo in 1970 and my first wife is the daughter
of the late Kieth "Butch" Hanson. It is cool to see that all these years later we are all still involved in racing. I'm the
crew chief for the DMS Products WS midget team and my son is the car chief. We have run with you guys alot and I just never
put the name back to the Vallejo days. It is really neat to see that racing lives on from generation to generation. Good
Luck in 2007. I'll stop by and say Hi sometime. |

racing pictures to. Just to show how deep the racing has gone in our family. |
