It's hard for me to believe that he still hasn't got a nomination to be placed in the National Sprintcar Hall of Fame...I mean how many people have been nominated with nowhere near that many wins at twice Jesse's age...how many had that kind of versatility...how many were as much of a fan fave as Jesse?... How many people would even consider running from the back to 3rd against USAC at Eldora with a 360 motor at like 3AM after a rain delay, then get on the phone, work out a deal with Bob Ream, and end up in Manzanita the next day to win one of the final races on the old half mile?
