Article is WP:HOAX. It states he was NASCAR driver of the year 1946-1951 -- NASCAR wasn't founded until 1948. No mention of Gonyea at NASCAR website. Creator of article, User:Gonyea's only other contribution is to DKE. There is an Andrew Gonyea at DKE fraternity at U of Mich. — CactusWriter | needles 21:03, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
