I think (maybe wrong) that Bruce Wheeler drove a #1b but this car says #1d.

Too bad Flemington waited until the mid 80's to replace the wooden rails with steel guardrail. It would of saved a lot of equipment. I was always surprised since NJ was so very strict about racing rules and regulations that they did not mandate steel guardrail or "Jersey Barriers" for the short tracks, or that the insurance companies never stepped in and banned the wooden hub rails. |

I totally agree with you on that one and I though about that often though the years (and also while lying in the hospital from one of those boards.) New Jersey was the strictest with safety rules in racing, yet they allowed (sometimes easily-breakable) wooden boards for walls. It just didn't make sense. Most all other tracks had concrete walls at the time and a few had steel. |
