Saw many good drivers in the 25 and seems they all were fast. RIP Steve

Doty is the one that stands out for me (like 93/94/95 maybe?) - basically from the way it was listed in NSSN, and we mita saw a couple on some trips out by Indy. Who else mita drove for Steve thru the years? Anybody know when his last race was?

I believe Tony Stewart's first USAC ride, also Jerry Coons drove some for Steve.

Think it was the Chrisman #25 Stewart rode out of the park @ Salem.

I also was reminded (by an email I got from Twitter), "Spridge" posted how Steve's car was "the last of the non-downtubes".

And, help me if I'm wrong, didn't Doty win in it twice???

I remember a race where Doty was wheeling the 25 at THAT, may of been one of the US Nationals, but Doty and Terry McCarl went at it for 25 laps tooth and nail with Doty winning by maybe a car. Its best race I ever saw at THAT

Doty won the 4 Crown in Niebel’s car in 94. I don’t recall exactly when Doty started driving for Steve. As far as other drivers : Steve Butler, Darland ( Sprint Week 2003 if I remember correctly). It seems like Jerry Coons and Cary Faas both ran his car a few times also. Eric Gordon ran it at IRP once.

That was Steve’s car that Tony went out of Salem in. It was also the first sprint car that Tony ever drove. The first laps Tony ever turned in a sprint car were at Winchester in that car.
