  • Ted Harbit in HRM

    The October issue of Hot Rod Magazine has one page of their "Roddin' at Random" column devoted to Teds May accident with the Chicken Hawk at Muncie Dragway. It has a half page color photo of Ted still sitting in the car and being administered oxygen along with before and after photos and a short history of the car.

    Thanks for passing that along, Frank. That story could have been much worse and certainly was for some this summer. Wish the article could have been covered under better circumstances. Glad you're alive, Ted. Congrats on Hot Rod.

        The editors were searching real, real hard to get pic's for this issue...
        As bad as it looks, Ted deserves the press, and has all of our admiration for longevity and perserverence...
        Still my hero...

            Cool beans, Frank; thanks for the heads-up. My subscription copy isn't here yet, so I'll be on the lookout the next couple days.

            (Maybe Hot Rod should do a "come-back follow-up" after Ted whups on 'em next month at The Pure Stock Muscle Car Drags!) BP

              Hot Rod's piece is a tribute to him and the safety that he built into the Chicken Hawk. As someone said earlier Ted deserves the press and is a credit to the SDC and all those who race their cars. I'll definitely add this issue to my Studebaker magazine collection ASAP.

                  Just bought the mag - absolutely amazed that Ted survived the crash.

                    Haven't been on the forum in awhile and I come on today and see this. I feel sick.[xx(] I'm so glad that Ted is okay though.
