    Flips?

    After reading this was Eckerts first time turning a car over, what driver has turned a car over the most in his career?

      I think Boggs has to be thrown in the hat for worst flips, as well as McQuire. I don't know who has the most though.

        Pat Doar, Steve Laursen and Kelly Boen. I have personally seen Bloomer, Birky, Jimmy O and now Scrub, also T Mac and Babb.

            The Steve Larson crash at cedar lake was the worst late model crash i have ever seen. The Pat Doar crash at Supieior was bad never seen it in person but i have a picture of it

              The other night was Scrubs first flip. Hard to believe as many laps as that dude has turned that it was his first.

                Gale Huey, hot shoe from Western PA, has rolled/flipped his car over everytime he has climbed in.

                  Laursen has had two bad flips at cedar, the double flipper with Tony Bahr and the one where he hurt his neck.

                        THAT has to be a record! At least no one can't say you arn't aggressive.

                          Think it's more about all the side bite and car roll than position of the shock. jmho. Personally I have 8 and half flips in two incidents one in the old flat running shock in front car 35 years ago.

                            Anyone else know of any big time drivers that have never rolled? That just blows my mind that Eckert never has until this point.

                              Richie Hedrick comes to mind as a guy that I've seen flip several times
