Question 11 Hints

So we already know that Rich Krier , first DePue National in 1973 in CRR followed by 87 91 04 05 06 07 , and Dan Kirts in 68 70 71 72 73 85 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 and 96.

So here are your 3 hints - one is a brother , second think RBH , and third won BRR in 74 than waited till 2010 to win his second

[B10L]

Tom Kirts, Jack Kugler, Ralph Donald

Ralph Donald is correct 74 10 11 and Tom Kirts also 74 85 86 89 90. Still need one more to complete the 5.

Larry Latta is correct Jon. He won his first in 1973 in C service R and then 2 RBH in 88 and 89. Alan Fedderson than had a great run in Larrys' equipment in the 90's with 7 RBH wins in 8 years!!!!

Paul Fuchlin

[racingfan1]

You are correct Todd. We sure missed Paul at DePue this year. I had a chance to meet his dad and talk to him a bit at the racer reunion this year. Nice gentleman.

Question 13

You may need to have been around a while to get this next question. While Paul Fuchslin won his 3 DePue Nationals in 1 year in 2001 . Can you name the first driver to win 3 Nationals in DePue in one year?

[bosv23]

Not sure the name of the guy but it was in the antique class i believe and he disclaimed one of them. Correct??

[racingfan1]

I believe I know what you are talking about Paulie , but that would be incorrect. Gerry Waldman , who actually won 4 , also won a C service class in 1971 but because there were two different sections of C Service and his was the slower of the two sections he disclaimed it as an actually National. That same year Jerry Simison also won 3 and a section 2 C Service class national ,however the first to win 3 in one year happened a couple years before 1971.
