Who is Frank's main sponsor? Does the family have money? always wondered, seems like a nice guy, quiet also.
The family is loaded. Buy and sell a new toter/stacker every 1-2 years. Shirley/Cullen bought one from them in '18.
Auto Parts Business is the family business. They have bought and sold different companies over the years. U Pick-A-Part in St. Louis was one of their many ventures.
Make it to spend it...so I say good for them. Frankie Jr. is a clean racer and good guy imho.
They are in the auto recycling / car cushing / pic-a-part business. Remember the sponsors St. Louis Pick-A-Part, Indy Pick-A-Part, & Chicago Pic-A-Part / U-Pull (They had one in Phoenix, AZ if I remember right as well.) It that have been on Frankies cars. That was their dads Frank Heckenast Sr. business. His cousin is Mike Spatola and they have a car crushing business if I remember correctly. Yes Their loaded. They would build these business up and then sell them for major money. I know one of the guy's that crew for them Joey Underwood (on Facebook.). Their some of the nicest folks at the track and have been around racing a long time here in the Chicago region.
