I Still Have Many More Photos ... I Just Need A Break !

Cars, including a strange, bob-tailed entry, line up on the track.	The well-known car 23Jr. at speed. Could be Rejean Field.	A big driver, with the car "Adios". No other info.	A dramatic photo of a Bouvrette car, in mid roll, on backstretch.
Help arrives at the backstretch wreck.	More Help arrives at the backstretch wreck.	Ambulance leaves with the driver from the backstretch roll.	The track car clears the way for the ambulance to leave through the pits.
The man in the glasses is shown often in the 8MM film. Must be "Mr Big".	The notableBeliveau B45Jr., on the track.	The Beliveaus work on one of theB45 cars.	An unmarked black & yellow coupe, lined up on the track.
Giles Brochu, in Victory Lane. He was one of the earliest Quebec drivers.|	Giles Brochu, in Victory Lane again.	Giles Brochu, exiting the car in Victory Lane.	Car 2, in the Bouvrette pits. They just dropped the whole front end on the ground.
Car 2, with Stars adorning the sides, on the Bouvrette track.	Car 80, in the Bouvrette pits.	Roger LaBreche, Jr. says this is probably him, at Bouvrette, with dad's car in 1956.	| Roger LaBreche, Sr. on the track during introductions.
Roger LaBreche, Sr. lined up behind an odd pickup truck stock "car".	Roger LaBreche, Jr. told me who this was. I simply cannot remember.	A driver waits on the track during introductions. Note the opening door.	Cars 2 and 4 on the track during introductions.
Same two cars on the track during introductions.	Cars head out of the pits, onto the track before introductions.	The cars in the first part of the lineup, right behind Bouvrette's horse starting truck.	Coming down the front straightaway, right at you.
Crewman confer around the very fast sedan #3. The Gaylord Rowe #T800 of Dick Goodelle is in the background.	The #3 coupe, seen during introductions, was a fast entry.	Two more coupes, during introductions. The lefthand car looks like a Connecticut cutdown.	Coupe #17, on the track for introductions.
The driver car of 80 patiently waits out introductions on the roof.	The driver of #397 is a prominent, one according to the LaBreches. I wish I knew his name.	A car with a prominent ad, done professionally.	The LaBreche 100, in front of possibly Vermonter, Jackie Peterson and a car 99 that could also be a LaBreche entry.
The driver of X4 and an official confer during the introductions.	The X-31 entry waits for introductions to end.	An enthusiastic crowd along the front straightaway fence.	Two well - dressed dignitaries wait for the program to begin.
More dignitaries including Mr. Big.	A driver gets out of his rolled car while he is still unharmed.	A very fast sedan on the track before the green flag is dropped.	A very similar angle on that same car in the pits.
An exceptionally fast sedan #3, before it was lettered.	The exceptionally fast sedan #3, a week or so later, after it was lettered.	The sedan #3, a week or so later, in the pits. The Rowe cars are in the background.	The exceptionally fast two tone coupe, going out for a race. Nothing - not even the #3 sedan - could outrun this coupe.
Another field coming at you. The Rowe team cars from Ellenburg Depot, NY are on the inside, and Jackie Peterson is in the rear.	The field is flying by. The black and white car may be Jackie P.	Unbelievably, Bouvrette started its races with a horse gate. That is the jeep in the midst of the pack at the start.	Of the flaggers, at work - right on the track.
