Another Talented Old Timer Passes On
Connie Swingle recently passed on.He was a very talented chassis builder and a top notch driver in his youth.I never met Swingle but I used to see him at the Don Garlits pit area quite often.

Re: Another Talented Old Timer Passes On
I hate the fact that people die, For some reason when people related to the racing world die it cuts deeper. When i was a kid in the early '70's they would drop like flies right on TV-
