| Comments: | Comments from Paul: The very first Brenn #24 Gremlin, and boy was it a looker! It had an angled metal nose cover with checkered flags on it, to conceal the radiator. Unfortunately, the cover had to come off I think due to overheating problems. Although Stan didn't seem to get his best runs in this car, that Brenn canary yellow with red trim got my attention. One of my all-time favorites. Note the roof racks. Ace Lane photo. 1974 - 75 - Flemington |

| 12/7/03 | 3-Wide | Just the other day, Long time short track industry insider Fred Voorhees was commenting on some of the early 70's cars that sported a roof rack - well, here you go Fred! |
| 12/14/03 | Fred Voorhees | I told you that there was a Brenn Gremlin with a roof rack. I just wasn't sure of which one it was. There could have even been another Brenn car with a roof rack. |
| 12/14/03 | 3-Wide | There's a few guys that if I'm ever on Who Wants to be a Millionaire, and the catagory is the "70's at Flemington", should be expecting a call..... Thanks Fred |
| 04/14/07 | Kenny Shea | They don't make em like that anymore..............that goes for the car AND the driver! Having had the pleasure of working with Stan for several years I can tell you that he isn't just a great driver,he's a great guy! |
| 09/11/08 | Paul | I saw him race at Flemington in the 70's. It was a thing of beauty. He would be halfway down the main straightaway and sling the car sideways and drift into turn 1. Just as he was about to hit the turn 1 wall sideways, he'd jam on the throttle and rocket down the short chute just grazing the wall! The next lap was identical as the previous lap. It was perfection. My dad and I still talk about it to this day. It was worth the price of admission (and the tears from the burning alcohol they used in those days) just to see him. |
