Comment: Great photo of a the modifieds heading away from the
camera. It's great to see a sedan leading the way as by this time, the
sedans were getting harder and harder to find until by the mid 70's there
were only a handful left. Just behind Wilbur is Pee Wee Griffin who I don't remember being a regular Saturday night runner at Flemington. I could be wrong on that, but I always just associated Pee Wee with East Windsor. Does anyone know if Pee Wee ran Flemington on a regular basis or could this be from a special mid week or extra distance event? |

If that is indeed Tas in the K46, it has to be 1972. |
02.04.15 | 3Wide | Thanks Bill. A recently posted trivia question posted taught us that Phil Meisner, Al Tasnady, Mike Grbac, Bobby Pickell and Kerry Schloeder all drove the #K46 Valiant at some point. The info provided with the photo is that on this night, it was Tas driving. |

For most of his time up north Pee Wee’s Saturday night track was Orange County in Middletown, NY. Although I was always a big Pee Wee fan, I felt he never adapted to the Flemington “square”. I even recall him running Wall Stadium at least once. |
