Rick Ferkel & Jan Opperman (and my first hero - Bill Rudolph - how many of you have ever heard of him?).

I would have to go with Gary Wright for current driver. He races many classes and does well in all - and is a clean, courteous (as much as possible when racing sprints) and an all round nice guy - not to mention pretty damned successful. Also Skip Wilson for doing so well on a limited budget. Another really neat guy.

My favorite 410 sprint drivers are Terry McCarl, Billy Alley, Scott Winters, I also like watching Davey Heskin getting faster and faster every week. I wish Scott Winters would make it to Knoxville sometime. Jeff

man I got a few. Of traveling drivers I;d have to say Jason Johnson first. - I like Shane Stewart and Wayne Johnson a lot too. as well Meyers and Pittman - I like most of em in fact. I think it is easier to point out the ones someone doesn't like than it is the one someone does. I like most all drivers until I get a different impression. As a kid - my favorite was always Wayne Johnson - when he raced here locally.

On more a local scene here in Oklahoma - I;d have to say Cody Whitworth, Jamie Passmore, Mike Peters and Danny Jennings. But there are a lot I like around here - and a few I dont too. I'm probably favorable to a vast majority of drivers. there are not many I just cant stand. only a couple here. Nationally - I;m gettin to where I can't stand Schatz. arrogant ass.

outisde of Oklahoma - Jason Johnson without a doubt. inside oklahoma - probably the 4 I mentioned above.

A very nice thread. I'm pleasantly surprised.

Current driver, Kraig Kinser.

From the past, Lloyd Beckman. He was king around here when I was growing up.

anyone not driving a small block chevy powered 1990 Maxim replica


The hopeless desire to outrun Bud Grimm's Fords is 
why central PA became the toughest place to race on 
the planet. Even the KING couldn't run with Casey 
Luna's Fords on a tacky track. It's a crying shame 
that current car owners failed to notice.
