Dick Trickle Quotations

Larry and Kathy (his wife) were both close friends of mine. I thought a lot of them. I still do.

We bought a ticket and got up in the stands. We got there fairly early and were sitting for what seemed like a half hour, 45 minutes, when all of sudden, here comes my truck and my car across the track. I told Darlene, 'I can't believe Big John (Boettcher) brought my car up here.' So I raced. That was my honeymoon.

That's the most memorable one, but it's not the most fun to remember.

It's a long way from Rudolph to Daytona. I feel I raced in a great era and in a great place. I was very fortunate.

The one that hurts the most is that Busch race I had won,

It was junk. The motor was broken out of place, the front end was smashed. It was only a couple of hours before the race, so I thought we were done,

I play with my tractors and live somewhat of a family life and just try to enjoy trying to retire sooner or later.

We're pretty excited. It's going to be fun,
