Today's 'Throwback Thursday' comes by request from Dan B. on Facebook. This is of former NLRA President Jon Bittner in a picture taken by JR Hughes in 2001 at the Dacotah Speeway in Mandan, ND. Bittner campaigned his familiar No. 56 in the area from 1996 to 2005. Bittner's son Paul plays professional hockey for the Columbus Blue Jackets' AHL affiliate in Cleveland.
JR Hughes - westernwandererphoto.com The pics aren't old, but the car sure is. Last weekend at the Jamestown Stampede this beauty, which appears to be an old Bullitt chassis once campaigned by Larry Seckerson, was on display and paced around during the anthems and the parade laps before the features. After some research, there is a picture of this car on the JR Hughes' Western Wanderer website from 1991. A link to that photo can be found here.
