I can remember Herb Thomas driving and winning in the 50's at Heidelburg, PA track. Are you sure it wasn't Tom McCall, the columnist for Popular Mechanics magazine? He wrote several articles on the Fabulous Hudson Hornet.

Dave I believe you meant Tom McCahill who was the writer and reviewer. He been dead since about 1975.

You are right, I think my memory started dying at about the same time.
