Anecdote

A fan’s recollection from Westhampton Speedway, where I believe Ed raced only once.

1981 – Thompson 300. Tony drove the car in practice and qualifying, but Ed drove it in the race.

I don’t know whether Ed ever drove this car, but painted on the side under “Rebuilt By” are “Garuti Bros” and “Flemke Enterprises”. I believe that the driver here is Jojo Farone. This is a Faust photo, courtesy of Tom Ormsby, via Racingthroughtime.com
