Hey Jerry, thank you for starting this thread. It is nice to have a thread about a new member instead of the sort of negative threads we see here on IOW all too often lately. Yes, I know I'm not always "Mr. Positive" myself :doh:

BTW, welcome aboard, Tony. :greenflag:

Tony is one of the good guys, we just thought it would be nice to include him or welcome him to the board how ever you want to look at it. Sometimes it is hard to stay positive. :respect:

Welcome to the board Tony. I had the opportunity to see Sammy run some during the latter part of his career. I wish Winchester would bring back the Sammy Sessions Memorial Race. I was usually the last race of the season in the Midwest. Weather created some problems so maybe an October date?

What a guy he was! Sorry you didn't get to know him.....he was the best.

:applaud: What a great story. :applaud:
