Here's another "Bet You Can't Name Just One" Trivia questions for you guys... Remember, we ask that you provide just one answer for now in order to give others who check into the board later a chance to get involved to.. For those like me that prefer to look at pictures of racecars on an actual monitor instead of a phone, here's a good one for you... Its a great East Windsor image from photographer George Koyt/George Koyt Collection, as the cars head back to the pits...

Here's a better look at the 6 cars closest to the camera: 
...and here's a better look at the rest of them: 
So, what one car/driver can you name: - Car #__________
- Car Color or Body Style______________________
- Driver's Name__________________
Thanks for playing along with our trivia question on this rainy weekend here in the Northeast. 3Wide |

I think the orange sedan (right, 7th car up from bottom) is Eddie Mumford's Z-8. I'm thinking Eddie's "orange crate" was a 1936 or 37 Chevy sedan. Scott Ely |

Most of them look familiar but I can't remember the names. What struck me was the memory of starting a lot of sportsman heat races in the 70s with almost that many cars trying to qualify. The track was usually pretty wet and slippery for the sportsman heats in those days too. |

#92 Craig Patterson Craig had "Michalchuk's Auto Service on his deck lid. Al's car was blue with a white roof and Craig's was white with a blue roof. Somewhat similar # style also as Al's #292 from back in 1973.

I met Craig while I was working at Lawrence Engineering. He and Al were restoring an old sprint car. Later on I saw Craig with his sprint car running around different tracks in central Pa with EMMR. I never knew he ran a sportsman car back in the day. |

I don't think Craig drove more than a handful of races in that coupe, but he and Al were longtime friends. Sadly, Craig passed away in Jan 2026. He had moved to Florida at some point a few years ago, and I would see him usually when he was back up in NJ visiting each year. |

I think the red, white and blue car might be "Jim Lawrence." I remember that name with a red, white and blue car, but thought the # might have been #123, but it doesn't look like that # in the picture, so I'm not sure. |
