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.
    Like 4 of the late M drivers or in mods now at FramerCity. Have not seen Richie in 4 or so years so dont know if hes cleaned up or not.
    Kyle hammer and McKay Wenger are in Mods now

        "Handsome Stan" and Mark "Madman" Miner

        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 old Ronnie Dobbins team, very stout for the time. Last I heard, Mark moved to St Louis area and started a wrecker business. Not sure of his racing status if any. Stan is retired from racing since maybe 02 or 03 and is a long haul truck driver, at least he was about 5 years ago.

            Around 2013, when I got back into racing, Ryan Dauber had a couple engines for sale (maybe the last of his own stuff). Then whatever year it was that LaSalle still ran weekly shows (on Sundays), maybe 2014 or 2015, Ryan drove the 33 car some, owned by John Piccatto. I remember him getting wrecked pretty bad in his heat race one night, and that was the last I saw of him.

              After he sold his stuff. someone offered him a ride. and I think he got hurt in that crash. Think he just burned out on it.

                Don't know if Ted Loomis was mentioned here but when Ted and Richie hit the track togather you knew something crazy would happen, if Richie could catch Ted lol. Wasn't it Richie who flipped it twice at Farmer City one night? Think that was the last I seen him. Ted went onto quad racing and now is done racing all together I believe...

                    Kankakee was were he flipped 2 cars. then flipped at FarmerCity right after that. Him and 83 were going at it, i quit him the week after that, That was were he was were his down and out started. His i have to win at all cost got in his head, and his pills for the pain in his back, and i got tired of beating the car back with a hammer.
                    Ted and Richie did not like each other thats for Shour.
