I was looking thru some of my old racing magazines this week and saw this one and thoguht the cover photo was perfect for this thread
OK, so when was the last time Kenny Rogers was anywhere near a sprint car?
And whatever happened to the Gambler sprint car?
I love the 20 lb rock screen and notice the wing doesnt come with a slider
Faster than a bullet from a gun
He is faster than everyone
Quicker than the blinking of an eye
Like a flash you could miss him going by
No one knows quite how he does it but it's true they say
He's the master of going faster. -George Harrison
World of Outlaws show at Flemington Speedway in New Jersey- 1988
Doug Wolfgang and local driver Tom Wanner in the 58 car
Gambler Chassis came from the former Challenger Chassis Company, and was formed and promoted by C.K. Spurlock. Spurlock was Kenny Rogers manager and had a passion for sprinters. Believe he also used to promote races. Anyrate, Gambler morphed into Maxim after their run was finished.Originally Posted by KevMcNJ

Whats the story on the bottom car here with Mel Kenyon's (and others) autograph on the dash?
Great photo. Big fan of both Mel & Joie.
Mel probably has story to go with it.
Joie died in '07.There are 2 drivers with this name.
I see Mel at tracks and IN State Fairgrounds show.
He sold a cool miniature of this car at that show. Great guy just turned 80.
Thanks for posting photo MK fan!
