Junior Racing
Gary Roberts: "This photo is a picture I took after the 1999 AMA National at Auburn. Left to right, 5 ex-junior Speedway riders, Josh Larsen, Greg Hancock, Jessee Finch, Billy Hamill, Ryan Evans and Junior Speedway supervisor, Bill Hancock. Billy Hamill is looking happy because he just won the National. But there is a large ice-pack on his left hand which kept him out of racing for a month after this night."
