Many great drivers wheeled that monster, I am curious to see who you thought was the most successful.

It was right on Karl Kinser's heals with many drivers. Since Blaney drove it the longest he was the most successful. Blaney went from also-ran in '92 to the only guy to smell Steve and Karl in the Ford '93.
Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Several Hall of Famers and "gonna be Hall of Famers" wheeled the mean blue 10 from Belen, NM. How can you go wrong with Shuman or Bobby Davis, Jr.? Haudenschild? Catfish "Winker" Lasoski? Robby Unser?
Ok, last one was a joke.
Considering how competitive he was against the Big 3... I'll go with Dave Blaney. The others did well. Blaney... better.

I will say Bobby Davis, Jr. but some guy in Texas is right, there was alot of good shoes driving for Mr. Luna.
David Smith Jr.

The reason I was asking, it was brought up recently at a sprint show, my opinion, there were alot of fantastic drivers in that car....my pick was Dave Blaney hands down, championship and big money races...where ever they went together they clicked....still wish they were in the game.

That Ford sure went. Kenny Woodruff and I think Bobby Davis sure made believers out of non Chevy fans. The Luna #10 was a sure crowd pleaser.

I believe Leland McSpadden put in a few laps in the Luna car also.
