One such car was a big green Cadillac owned by Rachel Middlebrooks. A lot of us would just pile in Ra- chel's car, cruise, chase after guys and sometimes we would even go knocking on windows,'' said Vicky Pickens. No matter how the car was ob- tained, or what the condition; the hope was always there. Sherrona Wood had an early birth- day present, ! got my car 2 months before my birthday! What a great birthday present. The hottest brand of car in the park- ing lot was Chevrolet, with Ford a close second; Buick and Oldsmobile were tied for third according to a park- ing lot survey taken in October.

The United States and Canada were divided into 5 divisions for national racing; our area was geo- graphically located in the central divi- sion. Wade qualified for nationals by first winning the high school bracket in Liberal, Kansas. My dad inspired me to race. Me began racing when he was seventeen, and I began last year, said Wade. Being able to go where you want, when you want, is what some stu- dents seemed to like most. Besides, said Robert Yeadon- , having a car sure beats walking any time! By Cassie Musgrave
