"Trick stuff by Gene Berg Ent"  Doug Gordon and Ron Fleming who, between them, campaigned the Underdog race car.

Best descibed here by a quote from John L.............:

"I think I'm correct on this one.  Jim Edmiston was the guy that drew up the original Gene Berg sticker back in 1969.  Jim, if I'm wrong on this one please let me know.  He also did one of two signs that were displayed with my car.  I still have them both today.

Also a few years later I think Gene was into Kapro Computers and sold them and components along with the VW parts.  I remember this from long time friend Doug (Underdog Owner) Gordon who still works at JPL in Pasadena, CA.  Doug was always affectionaltely known to us as the "MASS"  due to his size.  If any of you ever get the oppertunity to meet him you will see his heart and soul are as big as he is.  If you don't believe me just ask Ron Fleming, aka Big Al Tamming!!     

John Lazenby"
