Larry Dixon

Sad truth is it costs a fortune to run one of these cars, and unless you can bring wheelbarrows full of money you can't play anymore---regardless of how good you drive.

As a big fan of Larry's, I of course want to see him in a ride. But, if it never happens again, he's had a career that racers dream about. Championships, Indy wins, driving for the very biggest names in the sport, and, survived some of the most brutal crashes we've seen. Cool thing about Larry, is he just wants to stay involved in any capacity, even if it isn't as a driver.

Well put, Nunzio!

Like I said in my first sentence, nothing against Leah. Hat's off to her.

What is Mike Kloeber doing these days? He had that tremendous run with Clay Millican in the IHRA, and he developed that mono-strut car that never caught on but he has been pretty silent lately.

He had been tuning Sidnei Frigo at one point, I think that's the last time I heard his name out there. Sidnei has since parked his TF car and is running Pro Mod.

...or being a member of the media again....

If he doesn't secure a ride for 2016, I wouldn't mind him in the booth with Rieff...but only if Mike Dunn truly wasn't available.
