The photo doesn't have a photographers stamp so I don't even know who took it. The only thing on the back is what I mentioned above. If you come across the Open Wheel article I would appreciate knowing anything helpful. At least I know now that this is probably Langley's car. Thanks for your help. Russ

Thanks for all the responses and info. Keep them coming.
I found the Open Wheel issue. It's Sept. 1985 and on page 14 it has the exact same picture that you have. According to the captioning that's Jackie Holmes driving in the photo. It's definitely Joe Langley's Troy Oil Spl. #75 and this is the same car Bill Mackey was killed in.
