Before my last move, I gave away my archive of magazines going back to the middle 1960s.
In one of them I remember a story about a "Nats" where Don Barber and Cinnamon Bear JuJu candies were a part of the event.
The article was titled something like "Barber, (Unknown - possibly Camen), and Cinnamon Bear Nats."
Does anyone remember either the article or the event? Any details you can share are appreciated.
Thank you!

Donny Barber from Ohio 1978 Texas nationals comes to mind, but this race has been discussed here in the past, so i know members can provide more information,
Donnys from Columbus or Cincinnati , but thats where the brain fades out

Al Chuck says he expects to see Don at the Nats so I requested any information that Don might remember.

I hope that Don Barber doesn't mind me posting this. It's part of slot car racing history.

I have taken a different tack with the posting of the Don Barber video. Hopefully this will allow people to view it.

Firefox, Chrome and Edge do fail.
On my phone, too.
