Back in the early seventies my best friend's uncle, Lowell Lister, was partners with Joe Jacona. Running the Brief Encounter, they stopped at my friends house In Joppatown MD, on the way to match race Jungle Jim at Cecil County Dragway. Before the Brief Encounter Lowell had an interesting car called the "Sidwinder", and Joe drove it. Apparently the car still exists and has been restored.
