BACKFIRE

MISTAKEN IDENTITY

Just received my February ’20 issue of HMM. I immediately turned to the Pure Stock Drags coverage (“Pure Stock Drags at 25,” HMM #198). At first, I was thrilled to see my green Chevelle in the lead photo, but quickly realized that the excellent car shown actually belongs to Dave Byers. I’ve included a photo of Jeff Mann and me leaving the starting line for your reference. As you can see, the Chevelles are nearly identical and easily confused. I wanted to be sure Dave received proper recognition for this great photo! I really enjoy your great magazine (subscriber since issue #2). Keep up the great work!
