Dream Race, All eras best, all in their prime.
 
What would be your 20 car starting field for a dream race of every era of sprint cars, All in their primes against each other?

Mine would be something like
Opp, Boyd
Foyt, Carter
Bobby Unser, Wolfgang
Gaines, Shuman
S.Kinser, Vogler
Bubby Jones,Coons
McSpadden, Allen
Hewitt,Swindell
Oconner,Oskie
Andretti,Larsen

The rest of the awesome drivers didn't make it past the Hooligan on this date.

Sammy Swindell
Robbie Stanley

To hard for me to do. Don't see anybody with Dickson or bettenhausen.

Re: Dream Race, All eras best, all in their prime.
 
I honestly typed in Bettenhausen three times and opted for someone else.
I also don't know how good Dickson and some others were in their time. Just because they didn't win a lot, doesn't mean they weren't always in the hunt. Harder than it seems
Clauson IMHO is right there with Vogler. If you beat him, You've accomplished a major feat.
No doubt Shatz is dominant in Winged Sprints. About the only reason he didn't make my list is because most of the ones I listed were good or great in many kinds of cars in many forms. Winged and Non, Pavement and dirt. Nascar and Indy? 24hrs daytona etc. But go up against Shatz at any dirt track in a Winged 410. Good luck beating him.
