Mid-Am Stock Car Series 2019 Fathers Day Special Event @ Milwaukee Mile, West Allis , Wisc.
The Milwaukee Mile is an historic 1 mile long paved race track. Ron Weyer is about to be sent out for qualifying. Helping are Crewmen Tom Burkwald, Dale Graef and Jim & Collin Stabl.
After having had a great 3rd place qualifying lap; Crew Chief Howard Mess and Dale Graef ready Ron’s #07 for the big feature race.
A field of 25+ cars , on the pace lap, lining up and going for the green. Tensions are high . . Chief Spotter Howard, is up in the high grandstand tower calling the shots.
A spectacular finish to a perfect day . . The plan leading up to this day was to clean up Dale’s old oval track car and bring it to this race and have fun. Everything was going perfect, no trouble, then this happened. After a series of the usual on-the-track cautions, Ron found himself in the top five. Dale called up to Howard and asked how Ron looked ? . . Howard says “Go For It” . . AND Ron went to the front, winning one of the most memorable races of his career.
This is what photographer Mark Melchiori called his #1 best photo of the entire weekend . . Ron pulling into victory lane.. He couldn’t be happier , being congratulated by wife Dawn and son Reed.
