I had seen the picture Gene, but not the caption. I knew it looked like Billy, but the "Sonny" on the seat confused me. Looks like he dropped his goggles.

I have yet to find out who or what the SONNY refers to. Archie never had a driver named Sonny, just Billy as far as I know. >> The goggles look like they fell out of his brain bucket. Knowing Archie, if he stepped on them, it probably came out of his paycheck.

Looks like a good light for the camera. I read some references about the track lighting, or lack there of, at CC Spdwy. But, I would like to know about the name on the seatback.

I'll bet another Sonny could shed some light on the SONNY mystery. See the forth photo down on the "Archie link" page;

Just thought you guys might enjoy this one: From CC Speedway, October 1954. Caption reads, "Dick Lundstrom presents trophy to Billy Wade 1954 Mod. Stock Car Champ". The photo is from the Archie Lacy collection.
