Mike Parker owned most, if not all, the midgets raced under his banner. I remember visiting him many years ago, about a dozen or so Midget cars were slowly rotting away in the long grass next to a barn. His own personal midget resided in the top of the barn. I think we all know what happened to them after Mr Parkers passing.

I've heard this story about the 'car in the bar' at Boston many times, but I never saw it there. I've also heard that it later turned up in the bar (possibly suspended from the ceiling?) at Kings Lynn. But what happened to it after that, I've no idea.
