John and my dad where partners at the time John went out of the park. we have the crash on video and it still hurts watching the car hit the grain bin. By the way dad and John had to pay for the doors on the grain bin. Did anyone notice that the guy that built the speedway wanted something unique so he built a flat quarter mile with four corners, no banking and no hairpin corners. We need more people that think like he did. J.M.O. Funk, Tony Plough has a bunch of old pictures that you would like.
