I watch Johnny as a little kid at Paragon and now at almost 40 years old am amazed I am racing against him. This is a man that just enjoys doing what he does and is one of the nicest guys to talk with. Short story, I ask him the first time I met him in the pits how long he had been racing at paragon? His response was I was standing up on the hill when they cut the track in, so yes this man deserve to be there. Not many people will get into a sprint car and to do it as long and he has is great. :thumb

I have watched this gentleman since 1958, started driving sprint cars myself in 1965,Johnny was always a perfect racer he never banged wheels with to many if he did my back was turned. I also think he would be a GREAT LIFETIME HOOSIER for the Hall of fame. Thank You Butch Wilkerson

I don't know if he still does this, but he has been hauling to Volusia Co in Florida in February, bolting on a wing, and running with the All-Stars

I think he went in 2008. I guess it remains to be seen for 2009.
