Comments: We know that's Wally Campbell on the right, and we're hoping that you guys may be able to help identify some of the others in this picture.  Wally drove for Wally Marks and won the National Title in 1951 driving a Wally Mark's car.  Many say that Campbell was one of the all time best.

Tragically, Wally lost his life in a sprint car accident later that same decade and is buried in Allentown, NJ

Comment:

01//06 Larry Jendras Jr. The guy in the striped shirt is Bill Gross. Wild Bill raced out of Washington D.C. and spent his early years as a midget & stunt driver starting in 1937. By 1947 he went full time in the stock cars. He drove his own car and for different owners, including the #83 of Pappy Hough.

Track: My guess is West Lanham Speedway in Maryland
