Not trying to hi-jack someone else's thread but I can think of a bunch of central indiana drivers that I haven't seen in a while....
Billy Puterbaugh(sp) Jr. Wow was he ever a gas man at LPS!!
Seth Parker-- I thought he was going to have a real bright future and then vanished.
Justin Marvel-- I also thought he was starting to turn the corner and become a threat to win some features.
Jimmy Lazer-- He won some features at LPS in 05-06 and I thought he would turn into a hot shoe if given the right ride.

Anybody else have some suggestions?

You can add Danny Holtsclaw, Kurt Gross, Kyle Hendricks I think was the name in the 68 car, Fitzpatrick brothers awesome to watch, Casey Riggs, and the 1 I miss the most and can't wait to see back Daron Clayton.

If I remember right, I believe Holtsclaw retired a few years ago. Kinda similar to a few others in wanting to spend more time with family.

Justin Marvel might be helping with Brinton's 305, but I can't confirm that myself.

You can add Chris Babcock
Wes McIntyre
Brett Burdette
Bobby Stines
John Siscoe
Jonathan Vennard
Ricky Williams
The list goes on and on.....
Jonathan Hendrick was in the 68.

I work with Jonathan's dad!! I can't believe I forgot to add him!

How about Chris Gurley and Hud Cone?

That's correct about Justin helping his son.

Chris Gurley has run several SOD shows in MI this year.

Kevin Chambers
Neil Sheppard
Jeremy Giles
Mike Perry Jr.
Nick Drake
Motormasher
Erin McIntosh
Steve Rone

Most likely they disappear when money runs out. Second reason is wives get fed up. Or, a combination of the two. It's never because they simply don't feel like doing it anymore.
