Title: Trivia ? for Super Dave
Post by: Frank_Angel on February 04, 2005, 06:41:07 PM
Dave, trying to verify some Daytona 200 trivia for the '67 race. Specifically, the finishing position of Swede Savage on the Hansen CR450. Some web sites show him finishing 10th, and at least one ad and the '68 200 program show him finishing 11th. Can you shed any light?

Here's the trivia thread that started this:

Yeah, those are the bikes I'm riding for Mr Hansen.

I can't give you a perfect answer, though.

Thanks, Dave. If at any free moment when you're talking to Bob maybe you could jog his memory. Appreciate it.

My '67 issues of Cycle Guide and Cycle World both show Swede Savage finishing 10th.

Dave, one of the mags has an article on those 450's.

Really won't see or talk to Bob until Daytona.

American Racer II says Swede was 10th.
