Bernie Bailey and I bought that truck together because we saw how much fun they were having .  I think it was the end of 97.   Bernie won Turkey Derby that year in the first race out.  Very good truck that the Jost's had built.   Bought it for $5500 from Tim Stephan who bought from the Jost's.   Had a lot of fun with it and was pretty cheap to race because of the retread tires deal. We had a young guy, Artie Fariello, work on it and when we couldn't be there we let him race it.  He won in it too.  I think 6 different people won in that truck.  Good times and met a lot of good, hard racers doing it.  I wonder where all the trucks are now?
