Oh, lucky me to be here at the right time, so it was easy after all.. :)

Quote1941 West Side Speedway Champion – D. A. Clem

Durwood Aloysius "D. A." Clem (c1907–1956) at West Side Speedway in the earlier of his at least two front-wheel-drive midgets. This one was powered by an Indian motorcycle engine and today is owned by Bob More of Junction City, Kansas. The car is currently in pieces awaiting restoration - Louann (Chacon) Schodde collection.

Sometimes it's worth following the path of recently solved puzzles. ;)
