If I am not mistaken it is Randall Chupp's dad Gene. I posted some pictures for a friend of mine on another board once and that was one of them, I think that is who they said it is.

I have to bring this one back to the top. Gene was "THE" man at tst when I was a teenager. One night he, Kevin Henson and several others wrecked on the front stretch. This was my first night ever in the pits, and I remember thinking, "while Kevin was out of his car and doing all kinda finger pointing", This old guys gonna lose this fight. ;D Gene never got out of his car......lol

Didn't know that Biz....That's cool. The reason I was in the pits that night, a buddy had bought one of Skinners Rayburns, and I was down there trying to help him (more like in the way). I know your a couple years younger than me, but do you remember, or were you racing when the sportsman had to have a stock clip?

I started helping my uncle and cousin Dicky and Jon Miller in 1991 and I think they where just phasing them out about then. I race motorcycles and when we had a weekend off we would go watch 1987 thru 1989. But I was still drinking then and I don't remember much *GRIN*
