Well chris, being from Iowa I'm going to have my dream race at Knoxville circa 1979 when they used to add manure to the track to make it stickier and there were no wings. Here's my 22 car line up starting with a few of the wildest driver's I've ever seen......
Cary Faas - Bobby George (CRA guy from Hawaii) Mark Cassela - Daron Clayton Rich Vogler - Johnny Parsons Lealand McSpadden - Tim Green Doug Wolfgang - Jan Opperman Mike Brooks - Roger Rager Steve Kinser - Sammy Swindell Jack Hewitt - Jac Haudenshild Ron Shuman - Rip Williams Bubby Jones - Jay Drake Tony Stewart - Steve Butler I kept it to the roll cage era and still left out a ton of great ones. |

In an attempt to keep the number halfway manageable (I've been at this for 50+ years), I'm limiting my lineup to 1) drivers I have actually watched many times, and 2) USAC events.
-1. Sheldon Kinser......Jay Drake -2. Robbie Stanley......Don Branson -3. Tracy Hines..........Richard Griffin -4. Larry Dickson........Gary Bettenhausen -5. Dave Darland........Roger McCluskey -6. Greg Weld............Rollie Beale -7. Pancho Carter.......Jon Stanbrough -8. Sammy Sessions....Lealand McSpadden -9. Jack Hewitt..........Cory Kruseman 10. Tom Bigelow.........Rich Vogler 11. J.J. Yeley.............Levi Jones 12. Lee Kunzman........Johnny Rutherford (Provisionals ) +This would be a two day deal...Saturday night at Eldora, Sunday afternoon at Dayton. +Hated to leave off A.J. Foyt and Parnelli Jones but they were about done with sprinters when I started. Didn't see them that much +No particular order except for The Gasman in 6th. Seems he was FQ at every race he was in that I watched. +I put some value on diversity (dirt and pavement) but some were just so darned good (Hewitt, McSpadden, Griffin, Stanbrough, Kruseman, etc.) that I couldn't leave them off in spite of limited pavement success. +While this is limited to USAC'ers, I could easily do another list of midwest bullring greats which would give me just as much trouble in limiting the number. +I had fun with this, reading others picks and then doing my own. Thanks Chris. |
