How about another Greg Wooley. This is probably a year later than the a previous photo on lap #1. Greg made into the top 5 in NCRA points in the early 80's.

Here's another shot of Stan Constant. Looks like Stan had to borrow or buy a wing off of Greg Wooley?? It also looks like it might not have been Stan's day at Hutchinson.

The following 5 photos and some on the next page were contributed by Brian Carroll. Brian's are the first on the site from the rich in history McCarty Speedway.
McCarty was the home track for Merrick Racing, and many of the top stars from Western Kansas got there start at McCarty.
One of the only tracks in the area where you got to see both of the top classes. The supers and the late models on the same show. Everytime I was out there the stands were pretty full.
Oh yes, and if you can't tell who Brian's favorite driver was back then, I will give you a hint. Out of 12 photos Brian sent, 9 have Jon Johnson in them. Jon was and still is one of my favorites to.

Here's is a couple of Western Kansas chargers!! the smooth charging Terry Uehling up above the cushion, and Jon Johnson running the lower groove in the Evertt Isaac #6.
I haven't mentioned this on the site before, but Terry was involved in a bad flip at McCarty Speedway, that ended Terry's fabulous career. Terry thanks for the memories, and Hope your getting along well these days. I get lots of e-mail asking about Terry Uehling. He was one of the greats in the 70's

Up high in the King #88 is Jon Johnson and running the middle is #14 and were thinking Dale Reed might have been the pilot??? Is the #14 Wylan Cattrell's car, or was Wylan still in racing in 80/81???
