These pictures were taken at the Dayton,OH track, this would be asphalt. Mom said that Dad won the feature that day and it was a big race.The first pic is Mom and I. It appears I might be upset about something. The second picture is Mary Jenkins my Mom's aunt. She was an Outlaw (kinda) In the early 1930's she dated John Dillinger for about a year and went to the Chicago Worlds Fair with him. My Mom has a dress that John bought Mary. If you ever read a Dillinger book her name at the time was Mary Longnaker. I Like the car in the background 57 Chevy.





One of my favorites from Haubstadt, check out the trophy girl. This was the #43 car that was owned by M.A.Brown of Memphis,TN. Dad ran some USAC races with this car. M.A. was a big fan of racing and owned a big trucking company. He never worked on the car always hired someone to run it for him. He had to quit because he went to jail for tax evasion. Rumor was that the IRS seized it. Probably not the first car ever seized. The second car is the Larry Curtis(?) owned #4. Dad said that the Gold Deuce got crashed at Paragon and Curtis let him drive the 4 at Haubstadt so he could maintain his points lead. They went out and won the feature that night.
