Actually, Tommy Duckworth had a different name to those on his crew, “Oscar”. Don’t know why, but that’s what they called him.
Also, he had a bunch of people named John on his crew, so they came up with nicknames. There has “Otter”, Johnny “Jive”, “Hog”, and “Wienie”.
There was also a really tall lady, and they called her, “Gonnie Goo Goo”. She hated that, and I saw her jump up and snatch someone off the top of a big truck, after they called her that. She must of been 6’ 5".
There is also:
“Rat” - Ron Regula
“Slideways” - Bob Regula
“Flip Flop” - Bill Flingos
“Speedy” Reeves
Mark “Cheater Man” Keeteman
“Big AL” - Alan Styers
Ted “The Wolfman” Vernon
I sometimes got called “Wolfman” because of my beard.
I called a few drivers “7 Up”, because they “Never had it, and never will.”

Oh - there’s only ONE king of stock car racing in my mind, and as much as Brack was that much better’n Anderson some times (look up how many feature wins each has…), ol’ Richard Petty hisself is the only KING I know in these here see-dans
Is there any driver, NASCAR or otherwise, that has a good nickname any more?[/QUOTE]
I’m really enjoying reading these… lol
Rick Anges calls me Dalton “Shake N’ Bake” Baldwin.
So, besides Tony, does any other current NASCAR driver have a memorable or great nickname?
One I haven’t seen mentioned yet - and one of NASCAR’s earliest superstars - Glenn “Fireball” Roberts. Another one was Little Joe Weatherly. Interstingly enough, ol’ Fireball didn’t get his nickname from racing. He threw a mean fastball playing baseball
Weatherly was also known as “The Clown Prince” of racing because of his love for playing practical jokes on his buddies at the race track.
