Florent Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 This is a very nice tribute to this incredible driver. Nicely detailled and nice graphics too. Many thanks. I have seen Cabana racing here, around Montreal (and winning), and in race tracks in the province like Sanair and also at Catamount Stadium in Milton, Vermont, where he won the opening feature in 1965 and won also the last feature of the track when unfortunatly, it closed in 1987. A spectacular and intelligent driver. I have seen him racing strong against all the best drivers named by Bruce Bowser a little above. I had taken pictures of his '67 and his '68 Beaumonts (Canadian Chevelles made by Pontiac). I saw him winning the Molson 300 back in 1971 or 1972. An outstanding driver and stock car builder. I am thinking about making a tribute of his early sixties Ford Falcon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
