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.

That's correct about Justin helping his son.

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.
