FROM 

THE 

Pit 

By The 

Editor 

Here at Illinois Racer - we're excited, happy and 

a bit depressed all wrapped into one - possibly 

what's causing my high blood pressure of late . 

HAPPY BECAUSE .. . As our magazine has pro : 

grassed over the past 17 months we are reaching out 

much farther than first expected and were getting 

very happy response not only throughout Illinois but 

from advertisers In Iowa, Kentucky and Indiana . Our 

subscribers hole from all over the U . S. including 

Canada, California, Florida, Pennsylvania . 

Massachusetts, Vermont, and many more, making us 

extremely happy ! 

EXCITED BECAUSE , .. Our big race for local racers 

from every track in the midwest to be held on the mile 

at Springfield in September has prompted calls and 

letters from everywhere already, and people are in . 

forming us of their interest to help pull this off for the 

Illinois fans and racers alike . 

DEPRESSED BECAUSE .. . There are still a certain 

number of advertisers within our pages who make it 

extremely difficult for us to keep in existence . We 

honestly do work this magazine as a "sideline 

shoestring" that costs a tremendous amount to 

operate. We please ask that you do your best to meet 

your promises and obligations and help keep us going 

and our readers even happier . 

DEPRESSED EVEN MORE .,, Because a number of 

authorities on "Springfield Racing" have been trying 

to discourage us, on our planned event on the mile . 

We've been called stupid, crazy, ignorant and worse 

for ever imagining such a deal, mostly because of the 

extreme high cost of such a show and the past ex . 

perience and failures in attendance and resulting 

firsonical losses. This has been especially dishearten . 

Ing. because of the simple fact that we definitely are 

not wealthy promoters and we're relying totally on 

what we really believe the Illinois "local" fans will 

support and pay to see . MORE of their own people 

"Racin''' on the "mile ." OUTLAW LATE MODELS and 

STREET CARS for the largest one day purse for Illinois 

Dirt Racers ! 

So maybe we can do it! Maybe we can't! But if 

you come, YII guarantee you you'll see more topnotch, 

beautiful late model machinery than you've 

seen in one place in Illinois before, coupled with some 

of the closest, fastest racing you ever dreamed of! 

And if it means anything to you cr not, take in can . 

siderotion a couple weeks ago at Nazareth, PA, on 

the mile, where the Outlaw Late Models invaded and 

reached speeds of 140 m .p .h ., breaking ail track 

records, and besting even the championship dirt car 

times by a whopping 3 seconds ! 

So keep you're eyes open here! CAUSE TRACK 

RECORDS ARE GONNA FALL! ! 

Till Next Month - Dick

IMPORTANT NOTICE! ! 

(Help us Out!) 

Due to circumstances beyond our control, our National Late Model Dirt Track 

Championships to be held on the mile at Springfield Fairgrounds has been officially 

changed to September 25th . Although some of you may already be aware of 

this . Since last months magazine, we'd like EVERYONE to mark this new dote on 

their calendar. (See page 9 ) 

The response we've been getting on this race has been fantastic! We are getting 

participants from tracks thru-out the state, and it looks like it's going to be a 

real "Battle of Stars ." And with the size of purse involved it's possible for just your 

"average racer" to go home that day with some "big dollars" in his pocket . 

Remember, $5000 .00 to win - Late Model ; $700 .00 to win - Street Stock - 

($200 .00 for last place - L .M ; $100 .00 for last place - S .S.) . 30 Cars both 

features! ! 

This will be a race you don't want to miss!! But . . . they still don't think we can 

get the fans to show . There's been some real fine racing on the mile again this 

year and in years post, but the crowds have been staying away . USAC-ARCA 

organizations, State Fair Races, World of Outlaw Sprints, Midgets . All very fine 

shows - but no people! So few in fact, that another racing organization holding a 

big race in July has elected to cancel because of this fact . 

And naturally . . . with this type of response for such "top name racing," its only 

obvious that it be felt by "Springfield" that our "local track" racers and fans, will 

let us down in the some manner . 

But "Illinois Racer" thinks different! And we NEED you to help us prove that 

fact . We all pay our state taxes for the use of that track, so by all rights, we 

deserve our own day to use it . 

So tell all your friends - Bring your families - If we have a good turn out of 

our racing fans, we'll get to do it again next year, and at the some time prove that 

the Illinois racer and fan does still truly exist! ! ! 

P .S. You will not be sorry for attending this "Extra Ordinary" full day of racing of such 

"family prices ." Besides a parade being planned - many door prizes and drawings - 

special events and guests, and surprise drivers attending . You're all going to be in for 

some fine racing and a real TREAT! !

Remember John Beauchamp :: 

(Port II ) 

If you recall from last month's article . the late John Beauchamp, was definitely a tough man to beat on o 

race track. He seemed to enjoy starting at the rear of the pack and delighted in "weeding" his way to the 

front, usually in a smooth, but cautious manner . Though there were times when he'd do it, in just a few laps 

it seems, to prove he could do it either way . 

Al Baker (Kartville), owner of the cars John piloted these couple seasons of dominance, (1966 and the 

start of 1967), says "John was easy on equipment . He kept the cars out of trouble, and very seldom complained. 

If the car didn't handle quite right in a given night, he'd jut make up for it with his driving ability ." Al 

does recall however, a few weeks in a row when John would come in after the race or "hot laps" complaining 

of the brakes not working. The crew would check the problem time and time again but could find 

nothing. So Al says "We'd just crawl under the car and act like we did some adjusting and John would go 

back out and "run like crazy" and do just great, than come in saying it was better, when they actually hadn't 

done anything at all . This kept up for quite a while until Al finally crawled in himself, and after a few "hot 

laps" was startled to find he didn't have a bit of brake . Definitely making a believer out of him I It seems as 

though the brakes weren't foiling until they were heating up after midway through the programs, thus mak . 

ing the problem a bit harder to detect . After now brakes were installed all the way around, the rest of the 

season turned out to be "a piece of coke . " 

Al says "to have a good top racing organization takes a lot of teamwork, people who want to help work 

day and night, a fat pocketbook, and more time than mot people hove, or are willing to give . in keeping a 

racer going. It never seems to pay off financially, we won big at Peoria that first season, and won consistently 

at a couple other tracks and still had a problem meeting expenses . Racing is just a hobby, even for the 

'above average' racer, and the sooner they realize it, the more fun they'll have. - 

The fun went out of it for Al, John, and crew when in 1967 on the way to a race, an accident with the car 

and hauler took the life of their good friend William Brophy, who often accompanied them to the race track . 

"We race for the fun of it," said Al . "And after that, the fun was gone and so were we ."

Van Allen Tradition Lives On At Santa F e 

A bright yellow car and a Jorge number 6 . For nearly three 

decade, they were synonymous in Chicagoland racing circles with 

the name of Bill Van Allen . 

And with good reason. During his driving career . Van Allen 

claimed six track crowns at Santa Fe Speedway in Hinsdale, three 

late model titles at Raceway Park in Blue Island and o championship 

or the Kankakee Fairgrounds Speedway in Kankakee . He also prov. 

ed outstanding at the old 87th Street Speedway in Chicago . where 

the soh spoken competitor netted live season titles and the long 

forgotten Manco Pork Speedway, where he was also the titleholder 

twice . 

From the late 1940. right on through the stam of the 1970, there 

was hardly o race fan around who hodart seen Van Allen behind the 

wheel of one of his sanitary creations - be it on old Ford coupe . a 

little Nash Ramble, a Studebaker Hawk or Lark, a big Ford Galaxie 

or a midsize Chevelle . He drove them all with expertise . 

So revered was the often called "Little Bill," that when he suc 

cumbed to cancer in 1973 . Some Fe retired his number and initiated 

a championship race in his honor . 

But IO years lour, a living memorial to the legend has emerg' 

old of Santo Fe , 

Its his nephew, Errol Van Allen, who at 33 . is not too young to 

remember the contribution, his uncle made to the soon of auto racing, 

And it's for that reason that Errol . in the midst of a comeback in 

the late model class this year . has revived the familiar number. as 

well as the pain, job. 

No stronger to the cloy action . Errol . of Downers Grove, began 

his driving career in the sportsman class in 1977, switching to the 

late model division the following year . Experiencing just minimal 

success . in 1975 he finished fourth in points and was named the 

"moss improved driver' in the class . 

In 1976. however. Van Allen , number 61 suddenly disap . 

peared from the racing scene . 

"It was mostly money ." Errol says of his untimely retirement . 

But a lot of things have changed . I'm married now and my wife 

likes stock car racing .'Financially I'm much better off too ." 


Van Allen's brother, "Honest Melvin" Van Allen, 35 . of Justice. 

a longtime fixture in the sportsman class, naturally kept Errol s in 

forest in the spore olive during his "off years ." But he admits that it 

was his involvement with three-time late model kingpin Jim 0 Con 

nor of Kankakee last season that really sparked his comeback . 

Surprisingly, Errol says that the cost of maintaining a competitive 

machine has not changed much since he last drove . "The 

expense is just about the some . There, no more shopping at the 

junkyords for pans, though, its all store be for now . " 

yet, Van Allen does not feel that the advonced technology has 

hurt the spore . it . mode the young guys more competitive right 

away now without having to go through the growing pain, she older 

guys had to . I think its been harder on the guys who hove been r crng 

for a lot of years . though . " 

Errol readily admits that it is much easier to go to a stock car 

pons store to purchase a replacement pan than to cruise a 

unkyard in search of the needed pan . 

He feels that the' lighter. more delicate cars have also forced 

drivers to change their driving habits . "I think the guys are more 

cautious with their equipment now as a result of it . " 

With an investment of approximately $15.000 in his 1993 Howe 

Firebird . Errol estimates .that by the end of the season he will have 

spent nearly $30 .000 . An expensive hobby to be sure . But Van Allen 

contends that Santo Fes generous payoff Mips drivers recoup at 

least pan of their cash outlay . 

His car is ca-sponsored by Prime Materials of Bridgeview, 

Carmen's East Avenue Lodge in Hogkins . Palos Auto Pans of Polo, 

Hills and Ray's Trockside Service in Chicago . Ace wrenches on the 

Flrebird this year are Tom Dzedcic, Tom Novock, Neil Howell . Bill 

Laverty. Lou Lefrana and Van Allen 's wife . Kathy . 

As for his switch in numbers, Errol says that watching visiting 

drivers taking pan in the back's special shows lost season promp . 

fed his inquiry into the status of the long retired numeral . 

'I talked to Howard (7eidt, Santo Fe owner'promoter) at the 

banquet last foil and asked him why he was telling driven use the 

number 6 again . He said that they were just visiting drivers and it 

hod been a long time, a lot of people had forgotten about my uncle . 

I asked him if I could register the number and he said I could - I 

wanted to preserve it . Not have someone else out there using it .' 

Assessing his chances this year . Von Allen predicts a 'pretty 

successful season. " 

Although he has been winless in two outings thus for in 1983, 

Errol says that M has already seen some improvement. On open. 

ing night I was in with he slower qualifiers . But Sunday night I 

qualified for the fast heat. I didn't finish shot good in the feature 

but we we go, some chassis problems to work owl . Once we get 

around thet I think we'll be right up there . 

"I'm lust so happy to be back out there again . Doing what I 

really like . ' odds she enthusiastic competitor . 

"I feel alive again!"

year. Roger Long 8 Bob Pearce battled for 65 laps of 

Macon, Ill., Speedway on May 26 before Pearce rolled 

a tire and had to pit . Jim Harter . Dick Taylor, Rick 

Stonridge and Ed Dixon challenged the flying former

Kankakee Speedway 

By "The Space Racer" 

(Thru June 10th ) 

Cloyce Friend of Melrose Pork has been 

dominating the Kankakee Spw . the lost several 

weeks to take a slight lead in the point battle with 

76 pts . to Paul Shafer's (Highland . Ind .) 71 pts . and 

Danville's Bob Pierce 65 pts. Friend in the last five 

weeks has two feature wins, three 2nd place 

features finishes, to go along with the last three 

straight trophy dashes . His dominance is hard to go 

unnoticed since every Friday night he is running 

against Chicago area's best in Lil' John Provenzano 

(Glen Ellyn), and Tony Izzo (Bridgeview), NDRA and 

Indian Hot Shoes Dick Potts, Paul Shafer (2 feature 

wins), Ron Hekkama (1 feature win) and Bob Pierce 

(Danville) and Roger Long (Fithian) and as one can 

see it's fast company right down the line. Reports 

also have Friend running well at Renssoalear, Inc . 

Spw. on Sunday nights . Paul Shafer has two main 

event victories, one being a 50 lap event . Bob 

Pierce's third place points come most by virtue of 

two 2nd place and one 3rd place finishes in the 

feature races . 

In the Sportsman division Bob Shell of Clifton 

missed the first few weeks, but has had no problems 

running fast when he started . Shell has raced 

late models most of his career, and his experience 

has paid off with a feature win and two 2nd place 

finishes along with one trophy dash win. But the 

point standings show Shell's 65 pts . is second to 

steady Bourbonnais native Butch Kistner's 73 pts . 

Kistner has 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishes in 

feature races; and also one heat and one trophy 

dash victory . Mark Hubert of Kankakee is 3rd in 

points with 49 . Ron Bever (Montano) is only one 

point back at 48, most of which have come on two 

feature wins. Hoosier Mike Hollifield rounds out 

the top five with 40 all .

First Two Weeks At Fairbury, Competitive! 

By Lorry Kniland s 

After two weeks of running of Fairbury's American 

Legion Speedway, the eight-cylinder division has seen a 

steady Bob Line, a threatening Don Chandler, a speedy Denny 

Carpenter, and a waiting Jack Tyne . 

Line took the feature on opening night . passing Tom 

Rients on the 12th lap for the top spot lust before Rients 

tangled with cars he was lapping . 

Chandler, fast qualifier at :15.54, nabbed second place . 

Carpenter did not show up the first night, but Tyne did 

- minus his new car, which still needs some pans . 

Tyne will drive the Fosdick Poultry 911 until the latest 

version of his 89 is together . The 98 mount will give him an 

opportunity to pick up points in defense of his 1982 Fairbury 

championship . And on opening night he got third in his heat 

and fourth in the feature . 

The next week, Carpenter towed in from Darlington . 

Ind . and gave a late-lap driving lesson in the feature . 

Chandler had taken off from a front-row starting position to 

lead through 19 lops . 

But a series of yellows kept the field bunched - and 

after the last one, Carpenter used a high groove and

Racer Round-Up By Romer (Ca r 

Tri-County Speedway 

Tri-County Speedway in Mendota 

is showing everyone who attends, 

what a fine track it truly is . No high 

speed "demolition derby" at this track ; 

only good, clean, competitive auto racing 

- the kind we all wish we could 

find at every track . 

The current track record is currently 

held by Mike Salsman of 

Princeton, who qualified May 20 with a 

time of 17 :56. Eddie Bohlander of 

Glasford sits at the top of the Street, 

Stock point standings with 163 points 

to date . 

Racing in Mendota is every Friday 

evening ; gates open at 5 p.m ., with 

time trials at 6 p .m . and racing beginning 

at 7 p .m. A special date to 

remember is the big July 4th celebration 

race when gates will open at 1 :30 

p .m . Time trials will start at 3 p .m . and 

the races will begin at 4 p .m . The 

fairgrounds will also have a roast beef 

dinner on the grounds that day, as well 

as a fireworks display at dusk . 

Another date to remember is July 

28th, when Tri-County Speedway will 

host the Busch Series races . This 

should be another race that you won't 

want to miss . 

Illinois Frame Inc . 

Bureau County Speedway 

The Bureau County Speedway i n 

Princeton has been plagued with rain problems 

like so many other tracks across Illinois. 

It seems like every time the green 

flag falls, so . .does the rain! But Bureau 

County has something that makes them 

the envy of all the tracks ; and that is their 

loyal race fans who pack that grandstand 

every race program, rain or shine . 

Eddie Bohlander, Glasford, again 

dominates the Street Stock division in 

Princeton . But Tom Hamburg, Dixon, and 

Bob Teauseau, Spring Valley, have their 

own ideas, and follow Bohlander by only 

5 and 12 points respectively . 

The Bomber Division at Bureau County 

is currently being led by Jerry 

Zurlienne, of Princeton . Unfortunately, 

Zurlienne's racing wins are over for 

awhile; his car was "claimed" following 

the May 28 feature race in which he took 

first place . 

Future special race dates at Bureau 

County Speedway include the Busch 

Series race on June 30, and then the 

track's mid-season championship race on 

July 2. Other race dates and further information 

may be obtained by contacting the

KY set fast time in the Super Lot* Model Division with a time of 

14 .690 . Jerry English was the winner in the first heat with Tony Wall 

taking the second heat . 

During the feature event it was Baker . English, Wall and Hay 

battling for the lead . After several laps Baker and English had set 

soil from the rest of the field and were on their own . This battle had 

carried on for some ten laps . On the white flog lap with Baker 

Leading, they both went into turn One and two Baker went in on 

the low side and English on the high side . Coming out of one Baker s 

car had pushed towards the outside and this had allowed English to 

slip by and "Swipe' the feature win away from him . 

Congratulations to both drivers for a fine drive . One of the best

Izzo Takes Busch Race, 

Shannon Second 

by Wayne Rayuse 

Maybe Nanno City veteran stack car driver Herb Shannon is in o rat . 

Al least when of comes to the Central States Racing Association 

Busch Series . 

Shannon, the series point lender, placed second for he third 

straight week in the series this time to Chicago s Tony low . 

Ism, won his first lecture of the series and led all 30 lop . I . doing so . 

Shannon ran second to no, the pole-sine,, far all but the first two lops . 

No and Shannon had to survive four restarts . 

Icro. who won the second Peoria Speedway Busch event last season 

on his way to the season title in the point race which pays St0.000 . 

doesn I think a repeat of that will be as easy "No sir :' no said, 'That 

pvW who ran second (Shannon) hes got an awfully good car and he is 

leading the point series . " 

But Ina didn I hide his appreciation of Peoria Speedway and the 

series . 

"I really get a deep feeling far the farts hen In Peorb .- mid Inc . 

They re molly great people and really seem to appreciate good racing . 

At home (Santo F. Soeedwayl . I guess I I . too much and like Reggie 

Jackson I get booed because I win too much . 

'This is really a great spies for me because it gives me a chance to 

come to another track during the week m I don" lose pelting to Min at 

home on the weekend:' 

Shannon, who had won four straight regular feaWre most of PeorIa 

Speedway . was pleased with his finish although he couldn't win . "A coo . 

pie of flmo, I thought I really cut into his lead he said . but when you 

get aides Iike me you yet o IINIe conservative . I spun Mice in heat races 

to I didn't want a third spin . You re never happy with wand but I'm not 

stupid either, ' 

Following no and Shannon across the finish line were in order 

Mechanicsburg Joe Rms . Dernilles Rick NuHod . and Georgetown s 

Marvin Burton . Top finishers for other Peora Speedway regulars were 

9th by Tom McWrs of Pontiac and IOM by Creve Coeur's Randy Mahririg . 

Peorion Chuck Strube . making his tint start in Peoria this season, plac. 

ed eighth . 

Mahnng opened the evening with a six-lop trophy dash victory 

which was followed by IGlap heal win by Peoria's Ed Bien, Bloominglon 

s Eddie Shickel and Galesburg s Darrell McGee . Don Palmer of 

East Pwria won the SD-lop semiAeature . 

both into and Shannon got is mare following their 1 .2 finish, when 

neither was able a tip the scales for the 1 .830-pound Busch weight 

minimum . After checking the scale if was found to be broken and none 

of the other on were weighed . 

Tea not stupid enough to come downstate and try and race light," 

said Iuo . "I even added 40 pounds of weight to my ear fig the feature to 

make up for the full that I would use . Figure five pollens for 50 lap, 

that s where I decided on e0 pounds . A lgkt car wouldnt have had a 

chance out more tonight as bumpy as it was. "

impound the scales .' 

toter he turned to loss . who was declared too light Saturday night 

after leading Shannon to the checker . and said . "For awhile I thought I 

was joining your club . Joe . " 

hues biggest woolens of the night tame on the restarts when he 

had to be push stoned . "I was loading up out there," he said . It seems 

like every time I come downstate for a race we must roles the car . Same 

thing happened when I raced in SI, Louis, It really hurt on the restarts :' 

Davenports Gory Webb, who was second to Shannon in the point 

standings coming into Peoria . was the firs, driver to ant the lecture .
