Chuck describes the race: "The race with Art Snyder at Laguna was my best win. Art & I left the pack (including Frank Monise, John Timanus, Ron Hathaway, et al) in the dust with Art leading almost the whole race until the last lap. I was able to sneak by, take the lead, & set a new lap record." |

| Here's more from Chuck
about this race:
"The epic race between myself & Art was on Saturday, June 9th, 1961. On Sunday, I had the lead, but the Climax lost a valve early in the race. I think Ron (Hathaway) or John (Timanus) went on to win." |
