Professor Benny is not a Day-2 guy as we call it. He is a drag guy with some vintage Day-2 parts on that red nova. But, the Professor is learning. May have him talked into some Day-2 dealings on that silver COPO. Lets see what the Lehighton Flash may have up his sleeve for November in Chicago! BBBBenny and the Day-2 Jets. I can see it on his camaro doors now!

The big guy is Paul Thimm Sr. He lives in Mohton, Pa right near the track. His son races an Ex Grump Vega(im almost positive its an ex grump car) in the weekly bracket series at Maple Grove.

very good Steve. You are a smart cookie! Yes, an ex Grump Vega is correct.

Thanks! My uncle said to look closely aside of grump and see who it was. I knew it right away. It's funny, if you were to snap a pic today at the race track he stands in the exact same spot watching. Also my uncle said the guy in the striped shirt is mike Lewis.
