Ron & Ed, Thank you for the comments.Ed, thanks for looking up the date! It's always important to me to date these photos. I have a pre-race newspaper article about the April 18th and 19th races at Occoneechee and Peace Haven Speedways. Turner raced the #14 the next day (Easter Monday) at Peace Haven, too. The article states that it was a Grand National race at Occoneechee, so they had a Sportsman or Modified race too?
