Buzz Barton, Leroy Neumyer are two that come immediately to mind but boy there was a ton of drivers who sat behind the #71 Orange Crate and #70 Ol' Yeller at the fairs and racetracks back in the 50's and 60's.
The list of drivers is endless!
Hell, even I drove Dizz's car at Paragon one night in 1982.
One of the coolest things that has or will ever happen to me!
I love his quote, and he meant ever word of it!

1962 Johnny White drove the #71 and Starret from California drove the #70 at the IMCA Tampa races. I know because I drove the George Nesler #4 at those events and traveled with White. Starret lost his life after returning to California and White was paralized after a crash at Terre Haute.
