A little more fun info for new fans attending their first BOSS show - Driver nicknames and maybe how they got them.

#2M - "Lightning" Logan Hupp - Logan got jolted by a lightning strike a week ago at Wayne County Speedway
#3J - "Gentleman" Johnny Beaber - was dubbed this in a 1977 "Outlaw racing Pictorial" by Hungness Publishing
#4 - "The Nati Nightmare" Michael Fischesser - from Cincinnati, Ohio
#5 - "Honey Bear" Bob McMillin - owns a honey apiary and bottles honey
#6RR - "Joltin" Joe Liguori - somebody fill me in on this one? I know Joe DiMaggio went by Joltin Joe
#32M - "The Skydiver" - Derek Hastings - from his Ocala, FL flip when he went so high, he fell straight from the sky
#57B - "The Evans City Earthmover" - Brandon Spithaler - from Evans City, PA and runs hard on the cushion moving the most dirt!
#77 - "The Hustlin Hooiser" - Dustin Smith - who was the lone representative from Hoosier state in 2012 tour and won the title
#82 - "The Magic Man" - Mike Miller - always just "seemed to appear from nowhere" up front during his first season with BOSS
#91x - Aaron "Mid Air" Middaugh - who made the front page of the Cincinnati News Sports section with a flip caught in mid-air

We are still working on nicknames for the others, but they have to earn them first.
