My dad, Gary Munsee, raced on the factory John Deere snowmobile team in 1973 & 1974 and competed in the I 500. I was hoping to find some photos or memorabilia from his racing days. From some investigation I think one year his number was 252. I know there are a lot of race enthusiasts on here that may have something of interest relating to him.
I still have some of his race gear (helmet, suite, etc.) that he brought back with him, but I don't have any photos of the good old days.
