The Back Story:
Gentleman racer Johnny Hankamp and his self owned #29 out of Pleasant Valley
N.Y. On August 17th, 1991,
John had a night every racer who ever tows to the High Banks dreams of, when
the driver of the moderately self funded team scored his first and only
victory at Lebanon Valley. If memory serves me correctly, it was a night where one man’s pain, was another man’s gain, as Roger Horvath, looking also for his first career LV big block win, had the lead with just a few laps to go, but mechanical failure sidelined him securing the popular win for Hankamp.

and lettering stumbled upon our site and has now been cool enough to submit
some material for the site, which is from the library of some of the many
cars he has lettered at LV. After
Santa brought him a new scanner for X-mas, and getting
the bugs worked out, he sent us this shot of modified pilot John Hankamp, breaking tradition of his familiar #29 for a one
year deal he signed with WRWD country 107.3,
hence the reason for the numeral change.
