If thats the (Mario) Fiore sprinter out of Conn., its the first of his cars that I've seen that wasn't number 8. I recll that Fiore's daughter (I think her name was Pat) was married to midget/ sprint driver Midge Miller. Scott Ely |

The lady holding the birthday cake to Billy's left with the glasses is my grandmother! In the early 80's she started working the concession stand and cooking the chicken. She would go to the track around 6 in the morning on Saturday and do all the prep work on the chicken. Go home for a few hours and return around 3 and start cooking. She lived about 6 houses down from Howie Cronce on Pennsylvania Avenue. She was a huge Billy O fan!!!!! |

Looks like Stan in the #24 sprinter. Osmun in Chesson's 76, Bobby Pickel in the 43? |

Great Flemington pics.Could you put a peice of cardboard between the 24 & 43 Don't know if this was the 43 Bob flipped down the front stretch. Remember him hitting the throttle upside down,probably trying to get out. Bob was a great runner won in almost everything he ran & everywhere he ran. |

I thought it was Collucci's car too but they were from the Washington/Stewartsville area...says Fiore on the hood, I think it was Joe, not Mario. Mario owned the #44 pavent modified. |

Does anybody know if thats Pat Osmun in black hair next to Billy? Not trying to correct anyone because I'm really not sure about this but Gary Balough drove a number 24 one night in Middletown and I thought it was for Fiore. I also think Brett Hearn drove the 24 and won with it. |
