Is there anyone out there that remembers and would like to share some stories about Ed Dimock? Some photographs? He raced sprint cars and many other divisions up and down the west coast for years. He is my girlfriends grandfather and has Alzheimers and is losing his memories of racing. Anything you could provide would be helpful. Thank You!

 This picture was taken at Skagit Speedway, Dirt Cup 87'. Wow, very sorry to hear about Ed. We used to hang out a lot with Ed and Murt, particularly in the 80's but have lost contact over the past, I'd say 10 years. Extraordinary people, this is just 1 story of many but I remember in 1985 we ran into Ed in Grass Valley, it was his 1st time there and mine as well. We ended up following him home and pitched a tent in their front yard. Ed and Murt had to go to work so they just told us to make ourselves at home and they'd see us later. We hung out in the shop with Ed and had a really good time at their place before heading to GoldCup. I had an old stationwagon some of you might remember that was covered in signatures from this racing trip most at Gold Cup. I could go on forever here and will get back and put on more pics in the near future. How is Murt doing? If there is a # I could call I would really appreciate it. Please tell them that their Canuck friend Laura says a BIG HELLO for me. Thanks!
Nothing compares to Sprintcar racing on Clay!!
