Comment from Russ:
This is great photo of Bunky
Higbee from
Fortescue, NJ. Bunky started at
Vineland Speedway
in 1957 driving his converted Chevy, 6
cylinder road car and drove the famous 95a as his last ride, No one could
love racing more than Bunky. He gave up
competing on a regular bases so that he could operate Higbee's Marina
and properly provide for his family. He was still able to win 19 features
in the limited sportsman division at Vineland.
Bunky has been gone a little over a year, passing away on December 3, 2011. Another talented local driver who not be forgotten. |
