Henry was Lebanon Valley's first champion in 1953.
Here’s the J 5 that won a ton of races in the mid- 50’s.
It was a Hudson hornet. The car was originally a 4 door sedan, for reasons unknown, it was made into a coupe . It wasn't because they couldn't find a coupe, Henry had just started a junk yard in Lebanon Valley right on Route 20; one that would turn into one of Hudson Valleys largest . That’s Bo Greens’ SQUARE 0 on the left....and the 1952 olds 88 of Gene Dayou, which was an over head V-8 at a time when everything else was flatheads. In a case when no matter how much things change, the more they stay the same, they just couldn't hook it up...remember back then most tracks were oiled
Henry and Warney Carr were known to race Friday, Saturday, Sunday afternoon and night.
And Warney used to flat tow......Think about that for a minute. Of course Henry had a 2 wheel trailer. He was big time.....
