    I am trying to find an old friend, Vic Anderson from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I used to crew with him and his wife Cheryl when he ran a BBC A/fuel dragster in the mid 70's. Vic later teamed up with Gary Schmidt and ran several different small block Chevy alcohol dragsters in the 80's. I lost contact with Vic in the late 90's. I have tried to find him but have not had any success. Can anyone help?

    Did he drive the Pollution Packer hydrogen peroxide car by Ky Michaelson?
    Call Gary Schmidt, he runs Wheeler Racing Engines, Minneapolis, MN.

    Hi,
    That driver was named Dave Anderson. Thanks for the contact for Gary Schmidt, that was Vic's partner. I will contact him.
    Thanks for the info.
    Cheers.

    He had a very nice red TAD, BBC/Rodeck powered in the 80's. If I remember right, he did very well at Indy in 82 or 84.

    I gave Gary Schmidt a call at Wheeler racing engines. He told me Vic has since moved to Mcgregor, Minnesota. Did get a number but it is not in service. Left my number with Gary and I guess when Vic contacts him we'll be able to contact. Thanks for everyones help.
