I will always consider Joe a hero for coming to Mel Kenyon's aid at Langehorne.

I first saw Joe race back about 1958 at Belmont spdwy in ca > A winner no matter how many wheels it had!
That night he did an exhibition of Rear wheel riding went around that 1/4 mi track several times. He had the worlds record for doing that at one time.
I saw him on bikes and also midgets, supers and indy cars. He could drive, ride anything. and win!

I believe that I saw Joe race a Ray Nichels Dodge on the USAC stock car circuit also, if memory serves me correctly.

Get well Joe. I always admired how you always seemed to get the very best out of whatever you were driving. Best wishes to you.
