Drivers i havent heard from in a while

I was thinking I read Mark miners name in the results at I-55 in a mod a couple of years ago.

You did, although not sure if he still races.

He and Stan Massey were hard to handle for in this area back in the day. Those screaming Malcuit Engines won a lot of races.

The Austin fella raced late models a few times and if he wasn’t part black you wouldn’t know his name .. lol actually wait you still didn’t know his name. I really want to know why 50% black and 50% white is considered black to get the benefits that go along with being black ? If being black was this massive disadvantage we hear about why don’t 50/50 people call themselves white ???

While on the topic, i was watching an old Show Me 100 from the late 90s, early 2000s and saw some names i haven't seen in a few years. Tony Cardin, Johnny Virden, Rex McCroskey, Jeremy Payne, Donnie Barnhardt and Mark Miner. Not sure the ages of any of them, thought Jeremy Payne was young(ish) but just stopped seeing their names in run downs.

Jeremy raced for Terry Phillips in a Modified and late model then left to race his own modified in the USMTS along with a few IMCA races. I think he is somewhat retired now and has only been running a car for Jet Racing at some big IMCA races.

We don’t know what Austin calls himself. Maybe just a guy who doesn’t get caught up in all that BS.

The Thomas family bought another race track in southern Georgia. I think it was Albany speedway?? William is GM there and may be tied up with all that. DoD had an article on it sometime back Edit: King, The dod article was a dirtwire write-up Jan 16 2018 on catch-all page

They are not running Albany from what I have been told that deal fell through and Don Don Cook has leased it for the year. Supposedly a lot of deals with the Thomas family have gone up in smoke lately.

Richie Hedrick. Went off the deep end . Let the sounds in his head take over him . Sad story. He was a Friend at one time be for the evil got him.

You would be 100% correct. Check is still bouncing.

That being the case, then our sports most well known news page should write a new article so people would know.

Diabetes and That stuff they said Bloom had in his truck a long time a go.

I raced against Richie a time or two. What became of the engine business he or his dad had?

And Gary, you might know, what about Steve Hillard? A very clean, successful racer who rode off into the sunset or something.

Last time I seen Richie race was at Kankakee about 5 or 6 years ago when they where still getting a full field of super late models. He was a very good regional racer. Between him and Ryan Dauber and a few others. Loved watching them battle it out. If what Cardirt0 is saying is true he needs to get a way from the white powder before it consume him. If racing was so expensive anymore we might still see some of these guys racing.

Hey TheJet-09 - What happen to Dauber? Seen him at Kankakee when they last raced super late models full time and then all of a sudden we haven't seen him in 4 or 5 years now.
Best I can figure he sold out or just stopped racing for a while.

Gotcha. Sorry to hear that. Diabetes and drugs not a good mix.

He tried to burn it down was H and F up. His dad owned it after that his dad retired . Hillard owns a Bar and last time I heard he was doing will at it.
