Winning Combinations
Through the years there have been certain owner/builder - driver combos that just just seem to click. Everyone remembers them as almost unbeatable.
Andy Cote - Tony Collichio, Paul Martell, Ronnie Marvin
Andy Cote and these three drivers dominated for a short time in the early 60s at Speedways in Vermont. All four were from NH at that time although Andy when living in Massachusetts in the mid 50s brought his cars to the Gilford Bowl with drivers Collichio, "Doc" Mckenzie, and Porky Kinsman. In a recorded 21 starts at the Bowl they recorded 10 wins, 7 seconds and two thirds.
Frank "Stroker" Smith - Sonny Rabideau
Sonny and Stroker were the team to beat from 1961 to 1970 grabbing 5 New England Dirt Track Championships at the Claremont Speedway and 2 Vermont State Dirt Track Championshis.
