Cool stuff Bruce. The thing that cracks me up is that Reyna Kaeding is on Jimmy's right during the trophy presentation and she looks soooooooooo thrilled to be there :-)......

Thanks You Chris! What Relation is She to The Kaedings? Forgetting half the Names without a Program, 14n? You know the Gal in The Pink Panther Car?
Reyna is Brent's daughter. She is actually the oldest of the 3 kids and gave Brent his first grandchild which is a grandson named Brent a year ago. 14n was Duane Hunter who is someone I miss and a true weekend warrier. DBL Racing stood for "Duane, Bobby, and Leroy" as he and his buddies made it happen on a true low budget program. Bobby McMahon was actually driving the the 9n but I think the Lathrop's (the car owners) let their daughter do the mud packing and she actually raced (I'm pretty sure) herself at Petaluma Speedway a few years later. That footage is also the first time I saw Buehler's qualifying fence tester as I was on the other end of the racetrack that night. I maintain what I always said about that incident which is that had he not been in a car that had downtubes nothing short of a miracle would have saved him from serious if not life threatening injuries. On that evening luck wasn't on his side when something obviously broke in the front end and the car straightened out headed straight for the fence but a lucky choice in chassis style saved his ass. Hard to believe this stuff is 19 years and at least 100 pounds ago :-).......
