Car Guy Puzzle #2613 - TV Tommy” Ivo
« on: February 07, 2015, 08:17:34 AM »
This lad went on to some renown in the world of cars - after first enjoying another career. For one point: who is he?

Only a correct, complete and specific answer will earn a point; tag-on's to other guesses will not. So, be specific and complete!

NASCAR driver?

Edit: I've found it Otto!  The photograph is an early publicity shot  of  very successful child TV/movie actor, and later record setting drag racer, “TV Tommy” Ivo.
