Ask Shane Cottle, Hunter Percent, Eric Gordon, Nick Bilbee , Brady Bacon and many more drivers and I think the late great Robbie Stanley did run pretty good in the Epperson Gordon Silver Crown Car but he is not a top team owner. So Chief NO NOTHING how many wins or championship do you HAVE as a owner or driver? So you my friend ARE WRONG and its a pretty damn good ride and as your dumb Azz says it’s just an OKAY ride lmao.

Sincerely

Maybe ok wasn’t a good word and competitive would have been better. You obviously have ties with Epperson and I respect you defending them. I’m not a driver or owner. Current owners Hoffman, Ballou ( yeah owner/driver), Baldwin Brothers. Thank you for reminding me of the little 500’s. Those are big wins. Congrats on your wins with them. Anyone that straps into a 410 is a badazz.

Its all good and my apologies to you as well. Hopefully we will run into each other at the track and I will buy you a beer, coffee or soda and popcorn and we can talk and laugh about this . Have a good evening.

I think anyone would rather drive for Epperson than Baldwin. Especially if they were to be a cat owner......

First wanna say Bryan I’m only obliging your last two sentences of your response. So please take this in a positive manner, as thats how it should be construed. As I didn’t take some of your responses as belittling the 2E car at all. You may simply just not know? And that fine. No harm, no foul.
The Epperson 2E car has in fact won a championship. Shane Cottle won a KISS series championship for the Epperson’s. Yes that wasn’t a forty race series. But hey it’s a championship none the less. It was earned, and something certainly to be proud of.
I’ll leave you with this Bryan. I’d encourage next time the 2E is at a track your at, go down find Tony Epperson introduce yourself and shake his hand and just chat.
You’ll be hard pressed to find people with the dignity and character as the Epperson’s.

Leave the epperson team alone and appreciate the fact NB that support the races we need teams to support because without all of em showing up the sport will die I hope something can be done by to gain new car owners I shutter to think what hat would 5-10 years down the line the sport every owner we can get

I don't think I've laughed so hard at a comment on IOW since I joined in 2012. So thanks for that! Made my day.

Tony and Millie Epperson are some of the finest people to be involved in sprint cars. I would give an arm and a leg to drive for them.
