Great picture. That's my dad on the far right. Just forwarded this to him, so I'm not sure if he has seen it yet.

Little help.....

Got a request from a friend who is having trouble logging on to post right now.......she ID'd a few of the folks and would like to know who the rest are.......

She got Bruce Harp (of Bruce's Signs fame), who might have been picking up a trophy for Pletcher, on the far left and Daniel Keene next to him...and knew that was Westcott on the right with your Dad (R. Coffin)next to him. She thinks one of the others may be Danny Cropper but not sure.

And my guess is the Blue Goose, Dave Dunkin in the middle.

Thanks for posting the pic and keep em coming.

Rick, I have that same picture on a key ring that I have locked in my safe. Glad you posted this so I can save it in my photo gallery.

I remember the first night that car showed up at Tampa in '82; was that the Howe car that he brought down here the previous year for the Governor's Cup? That was the first time I'd seen an '82 Firebird (everyone else was still running the second-generation body style), and I thought for sure that thing was a Ferrari.....LOL
