For those that remember, Paragon was running wings in 1988 (including USAC which I have some footage of) but they held at least one non-wing show. If my memory is accurate the flipping car is Johnny Johnson's but Jr was actually driving. If I'm wrong or you have other memories of that night I'd like to hear them. I will be posting a very exciting 4 car trophy dash from the same show next week.

I remember back in that time frame where Jack Ziegler's car broke so he got in Johnny's car and got it upside down as that was the hardest the car had been run in a long time. Not sure if this is the wreck or not but a trip down memory lane.

The PA announcer mentions some names at the end, maybe Jack Ziegler is one of them. I'll check that.
