I was at that race Keith! Foyt and Bowsher ran side by side lap after lap. Roger McKluskey was in that mix too, driving a Plymouth Superbird (I actually thought Roger won it but, obviously, he didn't). It was a great race! My buddy, Ross Smith ran 4th in a Dodge Charger/Hemi, that car owner Oakie Drout had recently purchased from Don White.
I would guess that Foyt's Ohio wins in a Midget and Sprint had to come at Eldora and/or New Bremen (or, possibly, Toledo??). Foyt did win a USAC midget race in 1961 at Lawrenceburg in the white #6 Nowicke midget but, the Burg is just across the Ohio border in Indiana.
