That blue 25 was the Easton car. My dad and I owned it. Dad's name was Bill, and this is Randy Easton. If I remember right our's was the last sprinter Sonny drove.

Here is a picture (I hope) taken at a non USAC race at Winchester. Sonny in car, standing L-R Bill Easton, Mike Cummings, Karl Illg, Bob Hall, and "unknown". I was going to drive the car, but was out of town, and dad put Sonny in the car.
