[quote= I realize these photos and comments were posted a long time ago, but I was doing some research and ran across this site. I can shed some light on the question of "Who is Bud?"
Leo "Buddy" Schroeder was my uncle, my mothers brother. He was the financial owner and sponsor of Pee Wee's cars over the years. My family was always very close to the Pobletts family and my parents traveled back in the day to a lot of Md and Pa tracks to watch Pee Wee race.
