Per Superdukes post on the Winchester 1945 Labor Day Race, I was there with my grandfather who was a friend of Mr. Funk. At the age of 14 this was the most exciting day of my life. My recollection of this day was that Bus Wilbert, still in the Navy, won the race. Remember that this was64 years ago. My sprint car driving hero from that day was Elbert 'grandpappy' Booker. In fact my racing heros have been sprint car drivers including Duke Cook. Unfortunately I no longer have the program from that race.
