a few years ago there was a sprint car probably from Posse country that had Big Ben on the car after they won the super bowl. Does anyone have a pic of it? I did but i can't find it now.

That was Greg Wilson from Ohio. He drove that car at LVMS in 2006. If he drove it any where else I'm unaware.

To my memory it was Greg Wilson from Ohio....the car was raced at LVMS in the spring of 2006...
I don't have my hard drive from those years but I am sure I had shots of it. Contact perhaps John Mierhofer (sp) or Tim Alwyin. There are several of the California guys that always made that trip.

Not looking to be a smart ass or anything, but that is a big reason why I burn all my photos onto a CD and label it. It works for me when I have to go back and hunt for a shot as long as I have some recollection of it.

It took about ten minutes of searching around on the google images. It was on some sprint car news/fan page website. The only other one that came up was from Campbell Photo but it wouldn't load. It had an expired address or something like that.

No offense taken at all. For those of us that shoot ALOT of photos that come from big cameras with huge files...it's tedious to keep files for long periods of time that take up a ton of space for the potential to make $5 in five years time. I have used external drives...and they fail...online backup through multiple sites like carbonite is the only answer.
Sadly there is just no reliable money in racing stuff for the most of us. I keep what I can....or that which means something personal to me. I have those memories in my mind and I guess I am lucky for that. I am the official photographer for the Pikes Peak Hillclimb Now...and we archive that stuff for history....but even then....fires and calamity...and bad business deals occur.
Funny story..I actually talked to Big Ben about this when I met him a couple years ago..told him I had a photo somewhere. Alot of the teams stay at the hotel I work at...so if anybody else gets their pic on a car lemme know and I will try and get em to autograph a copy!

Yes, Big Ben is from Findlay, OH. Chad Kemenah and Greg Wilson are also both from the surrounding area/region (NW Ohio).
Signature here.

You got a thing for losers, don't you? Dullmansky and then a criminal like Rothlisberger.

I really REALLY don't get people who feel the need to drop douchebag comments in perfectly normal conversations. Never have, never will.

Criminal? Show me where, anywhere, that Ben's been convicted of any crime?
Did he have character and behavioral issues? Probably.... but until he's tried and convicted, he's not a criminal. But it's likely that a small mind like yours wouldn't understand that concept!
