My records have Ted Wise driving for Banky Taub & Jim Wheaton #68, Mike Garcia #21, Don Carns #2, Wilbur Hawthorne #35 and finally McMillin Bros. #5. (from mid 60's to late 70's).

Leo -

You've either got a heck of a memory or a fabulous record keeping system. I saw Ted race the Garcia 21, the Karns 2, the Hawthorne 35, and the McMillan 5...a long time ago....Either way, outstanding!:respect:

Great Job! And thanks for the memory ticklers - it helped fire up some long-latent neurons!

Chuck, As I wrote on a prior thread, my wife is going to cremate me in the paper I've saved.
