Knew Bill pretty good back in the 70s and went with him to Atomic and Wayne County in 1971 for a forerunner of what would become the Ohio Sprint Speedweek.   He ran with the best, Blaney, Quarterson, Wise and Cochran and won his share, including at least 24 wins at Mercer!!   Unfortunately only Ralph and Buddy are still with us!!   R.I.P. Bill Banick

 

GOOD RACING TO ALL!!!

 

Walt
