Article About Dick Trickle

A friend of mine on Facebook posted this. It is a rather long article, took me probably 15-20 minutes to read.....but well worth it! I knew who Dick Trickle was, but didn't know much about him. I know all to well with my Tuesday radio segments that history on the local division/short track drivers are sparse. This is a fantastic read if you have the time to learn more about not just the driving, but the life of Dick Trickle.

great link Cody, I have heard many stories about him over the years from my crew chief, Dave Savoie who was an ASA crew chief from Michigan. I was sad to hear about the way he died but now maybe can feel like he did exactly what and how he wanted . Everyone says he was one of the best. May he now rest in peace.

ESPN needs to turn this story into one of their hour long documentaries. It will serve as penance for all their snickering each time they mentioned his name.

What a nice article on the "Legend". Thanks Cody for the info. And, I agree with you Andy.
