I've got some more photos I need driver ID help with. They were taken around 1963 at Manzanita Speedway. I'm hoping that there are some long time Manzanita fans out there that might remember some of these guys. I appreciate any help. Russ

#13 - says car owner Bill Brown
# 8 - says car owner Les Hopwood
#18 - says owners J. Holder & J. Connolly

The 1 could be Art Mankell I don't know the proper spelling but they called him the jolly tamale and it has jolly joker on the wing just a guess

I found out from Windy McDonald that in the Hanson #2 is Frank McDaniel from Tucson, Arizona. (1963 & 1970 Arizona Racing Association Champion)
