Shelby Steenson of Abilene drove this super for Richard Hanson of Lindsborg KS.
Jerald Hedberg of Lindsborg also drove this super in the early to mid 70's.
It was the last of the supers from the Salina KS area. It was also some of my first photos of race cars with a 110 camera. Richard brought it to Hutchinson's Salthawk Speedway (Mohawk). The old 1/4 mile on a Saturday night in probably 75 0r 76. This had to be the last open wheel car to run on the old track, and it was the first time in probably 10 years.

This is what the #24 looks like in the year 2001. Restored and owned by Paul Martens of Fairview OK. I believe it is probably restored to the 1975 version of the Performance Engineering #24, driven by Harold Leep, and owned by Warren (Jelly) Wilhelm.
