My childhood days saw drivers like Ross Smith, Tommy Mattlin, Wayne Wolf, Roy Robbins, Stan Bowman, Calvin Gilstrap, Jim Cushman, Jim Bob Luebbert, Dick Gaines, Mike Smith, Mike Johnson, Bud Detmer, Frankie Mack, Joe Pflum, Gil Hess, Larry & Steve Cannon, Bill Teegarden (yes, in a sprinter), Sheldon Kinser (Brewer Cadillac#14) Hugh Randell, and CECIL Beavers (hint, hint:O. All of these guys ran sprinters (or sprint coup/modifieds as they were called) at the Burg fairly regularly at one point in time during the 60's. The 60's was a transition period where the old openwheel modified coups evolved into sprint cars. I remember when the Detmers (Bud and Dale) switched from the old chopped down coup body to a sprint car body on their modified. There are a lot more but that is all I can think of off the top of my head right now.

PS...if any of you old guys can add to this list from the late 50's thru the 60's, have at it! I need to have my memory jarred!
