Anyone remember Chuck Baird?

He is supposedly putting a FED together.
(in fact it's built mostly)

I raced against Chuck at Maple Grove back in the late 80's-early 90's (I think). I have a bad case of CRS. His TAD was bad ass and the quickest on the planet at that time.

With that paint job I would have to say yes.

Yeah, I am from the south--any further south and I would have been a bloody penguin.

Yea, I thought so. I'm about 35 miles west of his place.

I think that the old car was called "Wildside" or something like that. Chuck was real aggressive with the tune-up.

Yes, that is Chuck.

He was the 1st to 250 MPH in TAD back then.
He always had a lot of nice paint job cars.
