One of the sharpest cars of that era, the Mickow #12 sprint.
I took this shot of Mike at Knoxville in the spring of 1979.

That big thing sticking out the rear is the fan pleasing, no fuel stops attachment that all sprint cars should be running today. Bring back the big tanks!

another cool pic Lee, that was a tough combination, Mike in that Maxwell car with Wayne's motors, they won a lot.
