We've been contacted by NASCAR productions to help come up with some Tiny Lund stuff for an upcoming Fox Sports 1 special. The special focuses on his personality. We're looking for:

1. Any footage of Tiny talking to the camera. 2.

2. Some first-hand accounts (stories) of knowing and racing with him. Dennis Andrews, we need to hook them up with Wayne.

3. Photographs.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I used to hang out with Tiny when he was racing out of Lyle Stezler shop out by Owens Field airport.  And, as you know, Wanda, Ann and I were good friends.  If I can help you out, let me know.

What a change! It's been awhile since I've checked in and I'm quite surprised. It may take me awhile to figure it our but first look it's really great.

Jeff,

BB's suggestion of Tiger Tom is a good one. I also would suggest Marie Hopkins, she may have access to pictures and video.

Jeff,

I'm sure you thought of this already but Ray Lamm and Dargon Watts should have pictures they would share.

Attached is one article from The Danville Bee April 24, 1970 mentioning Tiny racing in Savannah and the second is his death, The Danville Bee August 20, 1975 and August 21, 1975

I don’t know if Joe Dean Huss of Roanoke Rapids, NC subscribes to this Forum, but he was a friend of Tiny and raced with him in the Grand American series   Joe is a long time racer and great story teller, and could add some colorful commentary.
