Gotta be Skuza. Would be real nice to see Jeff with a full-time, competitive ride as well.

My pick too. I heard he might be out in a N/FC some time. Nothing in writing yet, just a part time thing.

TF: Dunn. I've watched him do things in the car that just don't look possible.
FC: Skuza. He's always been a great driver. You can also add Hoffman to the list, but I hear he's a happy guy in retirement. Cory Lee always impressed me as someone who coud drive anything, regardless of his last outing. Had he had more seat time coming in to the Pomona race, I think he'd have driven it to the stripe.

My votes for Mike Dunn. No question in my mind at all.
I've always thought Mark Oswald made a pretty good flopper pilot, and he's not driving. Did he officially retire? I know he helps out teams from time to time.
I still remember that time he blew the body off his car, getting his visor covered with oil in the process, and reaching up to open the escape hatch that wasn't there any more all the while still moving at over 100mph or so.

I just watched that a few nights ago & it still amazes me. Afterwards the late, great Steve Evans is describing the carnage as the camera shows the motor absolutely disintegrated between the frame rails. Unreal.

Diamond P keeps me sane between races... "I was reaching to see if the body was still there..." Unreal

I'd go with Jeggie, too if we were talking Pro Stock. I don't think he sees it like he's out of a ride though. He's doing so well where he's at. |
I'd have to agree with you on both picks. However, I don't think Jeggie is ever without a ride. Just between rides, (in Pro Stocks), sometimes. You heard what VC said last week. "Like any other team owner, I'd love to have him". Or something to that effect.

Welcome to the mater, KC. Hope to see you back out there sometime. I seem to remember that you managed to a lot with a little.
