This is the only photo I have of my '76 B250 hauling the remains of the Mustang body from my dirt modified... spring 1987.
I had just returned from racing the short tracks during Florida Speed Weeks.

May I ask why once was enough?

Once was enough for Mark.
I ran a real budget operation. The engine was a junkyard 351-C with 133k on the clock.
I was running a local 1/4 mile oval track and I hired Mark to come up and give a special event some star power.
When he got there we went into my garage and he said..."looks like we have some work to do!".
A few spring changes, swapped the sway bay and set ride height and he was out for practice.
I had my crew put him on the clock...three laps in he broke the track record and blew the engine on the front straight.
Ruined my best $50 engine!
Later that night I put him in a competitive car and he did a quick 15 lap heat running against the guy who was the national champion.
He signed autographs until 10 pm.
I also sponsored him the following year when he had his Ford ASA deal... 1984.
