I was there. Saturday nite it rained out like a cow pissing on a flat rock. Something like 6+ inches.

Added another new one to my site. Maybe one of you can help me identify it. I know the last name is Winter. I believe the first name is Ken... Competition number was 564 T/F. The shot was taken up at Brainerd in '71.

Kenny and Kevin Winter, ran as Winter Brothers racing. I believe Kevin owned the trailer. Kenny owned and drove the car.

I think they both did auto body work. Kevin worked at Jon Kosmoski's House of Color for numerous years before going on his own as SunShine Custom Paint Studios. Kevin was the premier custom painter in the cities at the time and painted many of the Top Fuel Dragsters and Funny cars, he also painted pretty much all of Smith Bros, and Fetro Custom Choppers in the 70's through the 80's.

Kevin and his wife Janet, now do screen printing of t-shirts and embroidery as the Winter Company in savage.

I do not know much about Kenny other than he was Kevin's older brother. Their sister Pinky was married to Doc Halladay https://www.facebook.com/doc.halladay?fref=ts. :dragster:

Last time I talked to him Kenny was in AZ restoring and selling old gas pumps.

It is Ken Winter after Kevin got out of racing.

"It is my brother’s car. Ken Winter. He was on his own then. Before that it was Winter Brothers and Neuman. We had a green AA/FD built by Bob Meyer named Cheap Thrills. That car was totaled in Iowa. My brother was driving and the rubber separated from the wheel on the front end causing the car to crash as it went through the lights." - Kevin Winter

Any ol' Div. 5 guys know who this is? I know it's blurry with not many details but a guy can hope... right...

I'm thinking possibly Ross & Stuart... Maybe Ross, Reis, & Stuart...

It's taken at Donnybrooke Raceway 1971.

Found out this is the ol' 'Nitohelper' Jerry Newman's Hot Rod Shop TF digger driven by Danny Wingert.
