Ron Jackson No. 64 and No. 11

By the time I started attending MVSC races regularly, Ron had

moved on to race super modifieds at 34 Raceway in Burlington,

Iowa. Ron would later move back to racing stock cars too.

One year he won the prestigious modified stock car race at

the Great Iowa State Fair. Ron was from Burlington, Iowa

Above Ron and his sporty dressed pit crew! Ron's wife posted on facebook that Ron said:

"it was a 235 Chevy with cast iron pistons which was torn down about 5 times and then won the feature next time out. Never illegal only out voted the last race. Welcome to Club Racing."
