This means you haven't sprung for the book yet? :-) At the end, he says that Kevin Eckert told him that Turkey Night '07 was Dave's 179th win. So Dave figures he now is somewhere around 220.

BTW, it's a good book. You should buy it.

I would say that they don't have anyone on site that would break down a engine. If they did you would have heard someone say something about it.they have to take care of their big dogs. And that would take away from the usac president huge salary.

Can anyone post a Tom Bigelow autograph? Some people I know would stand in line at the next race just to get another. As I remember it was a mouse or something like that.

Here's an example of his autograph from about 1977.

Yes, he did always draw a caricature of Mickey Mouse when he signed. Got his autograph many decades ago, at DuQuoin, I think. Actually, I got it multiple times, but I have a small notebook that I kept for what I considered my permanent autograph collection. I got several autographs over the years on racing programs, too, from many drivers. I was fortunate to get Don Branson and Jud Larson to sign at DuQuoin in 1965. DuQuoin was a good place to get a lot of autographs back in the day.

Who has the most USAC wins over all? Sprint Midget and Silver Crowns?
And with how many?
It seems like Tracey Hines is tied with a couple other guys.
Does anyone know? Thanks!!
