Glad to see Connie still at the races, along with Big Jim Dunn.

Those are some classic Connie Kalitta moments. Thanks for posting those Youtube videos. Connie vs Buster Couch would have been quite a showdown.

It has been said that there are many, many great Connie Kalitta stories which unfortunately are not suitable for re-telling to a general audience. That's a real shame. I would like to hear them!

Would be cool if JimO could sit down with Connie and do a book

Some guy tried to hi-jack a Kalitta aircraft & Connie took away his knife. That was that, with maybe a few, uh, bruises for the idiot. Don't know when this happened, but it was some years ago. I would never want to make that man mad at me.
