I went to High School with Ronny. He is the one who got me into OPC racing in 1964. When Ronny went into the Navy I acted as crew for Brooke for a couple of years. I drove and then served as "riding mechanic" on this boat in the 1966 Orange Bowl 9 Hour race. I was in my first driving stint in this race when Hank Bowman was killed and the race halted. The riding mechanic part is a whole different story.

[QUOTE=FUJIMO;3375923]\\Thanks Fujimo, Delbert grow up, lived with and went to school with my Pop's and my uncles in Downey Ca.
I remember watching and helping him as a young lad run kneel downs tower of power drags at Marine Stadium in Long Beach. He told me after he competed and completed the drags, they would have enduro races against all classes where he usually finished and made some money back.
In 2013 I found a Baker tunnel rotting away. I ended up with his race boat (the one above) that he and Jerry Baker worked on and raced one time at the 86 Parker Enduro before he crashed it. Weird how things work out.
