This months showcase driver for the 4 Cylinder Truck class is "Wild Bill" Harman and "WildWon Motorsports".

 

Contacted by part of Wild Bill's group, I was told "We race 4 cylinder trucks at Waynesfield Motorsports Park in Waynesfield Ohio, and at Limaland Motorsports Park In Lima , Ohio when they run us.

The picture left is of "Wild Bill" Harman and “Therapy”, their "hot rod".

In 2007, "Wild Bill" and "Therapy" was 3rd in points, with 2 feature wins, and MANY top 5’s.
