Tommy Hinnershitz is number 1 on my list.
Jack Hewitt is number 2
I've never had a number 3 till just recently,but Daron Clayton is electrifying to watch anytime he hits the track.
Someone mentioned Irvin King earlier in this thread. Its always good to chat with Irvin & Mary Jane King.

OK, I lied, but I just like to say that name. It makes me laugh so hard!
Seriously though, I like anybody named KAEDING.

My favorites from the past include Jan Opperman, Rick Ferkel and Bobby Adamson.
My current favorites include Steve Kinser, Kenny Adams and Dave Steele.
I have many other favorites, past and present. Who are some of your favorites?
Let's keep this topic friendly, no negativity or knocking other's favorites. And please, no wagering on which drivers will get the most mentions! lol
|
My old school favs are of course Jan Opperman, that guy could drive the wheels off anything he got into.
Lynn Paxton
Rick Ferkel
Mike Lloyd

Dear slaminsammy1- now that is the traditional Swindell point of view we all know and love. Sammy Swindell....who else is there? Literally? Maybe any of the remining drivers from Swindell Stable of Champions like Sam, Jeff, Kevin and maybe Sissy (sprintcars?) too.
Not trying campaign here or slam Sammy , just posting some names not mentioned up to this point. Though I do confess, my absoulte favorite driver is Lil' Ricky, and that will be why I approve this message.

Roger Rager? Being from the upper midwest, there were a lot of drivers to fall into this category.... Donnie Spieker, Donnie and Linus Mack, Lou Kennedy SR., Harry Johnson, Harry Thurlow, Tumbleweed, Gordy Lamb, Eric Nygaard....lately, Schatz, Langerud, Wade Nygaard, Dobmeier........good luck to the new gen......
Fenders are like vacuums... they both suck.
