He won a ton of races and the statistics make his greatness pretty evident, but there are more than a handful of guys who won a bunch as well and won them in a much cleaner fashion, overall.
Fire away.
I really don't think a memorial post should be a post to discredit someone, Wait till tomorrow and bring it up.
Like Sammy Rich was often a person you loved to hate and often times just dominated (Expecially in midgets)
I found myself at Terre saying anyone but Levi. That doesn't mean I wish him anything bad either
Me and my brother were driving home from the Kings Royal that night and heard it on 700wlw radio that he had passed. No words were really spoken the rest of the night.
There are many who were much more with Rich than I as a casual fan. The night is a memory to me. To others it was life changing. To Rich it was final. HE Won doing what he did best. What else is there to say?
