His career just at Eldora was the stuff of legend. Lots of highs and a few lows. He was ALWAYS the show.

First time I saw him in person was in an arca race at Springfield in 1991. I’d heard of him thru speed sport and tv highlights. Started outside pole. Spin out of turn 2 on lap 1. Did a 360 and kept going with no yellow. Fell to back of pack and was inside top 5 by lap 30 or so when the motor let go. My first impression was that I understood the hype. A wheelman. Also a cult of personality. A one of a kind type of guy.
