Those '68 photos brought back some serious memories!!  :)  Lets's see:

19 - Wayne Reynolds
151 - Wayne Edwards
10 - Larry Groover
17 - Tom Pelto
60 - Dave Offnick (with Larry Edwards' 5 and Dutch Hoag's 7 behind it)
8o8 - Wild looking car; do not remember who drove it, but somehow I seem to recall this car getting wrecked and then resurrected the next year with Johnny Cedarborg at the wheel.
8 - Carl Fellows
Snoopy 1 - Don't recall this one.
Wild 1, 98, 1 - Do not recall these either; was the 98 Bill Brainerd?

Is the #60 in the top bunch also Dave Offnick? (Dave on the door). Also...what year did they cut the trees out from the infield?

Dale Campfield cut down the infield trees his first year as promoter, 1979.  He also removed the big UKE tires from the infield that year, too.
