03/19/04 | Mick McNamara | Man..... Would I like a count on how many guys drove that " Deasey Donkey" over the years!!!!!! I know of at least 11... |
03/19/04 | 3-Wide | I saw a list one time and I think it was around 25 - 30 drivers!!! I was going to use it as a trivia question, but I kinda figured too many guys may have seen the list... |
06.01.11 | Richard Coleman | I remember one Sunday Bob Pickell came to Nazareth without a ride because he had wrecked at Flemington Saturday night, and catch drove the Donkey to a feature win. He drove it for a few more weeks until his car was fixed. |
06.02.11 | 3-Wide | Here's the list of drivers that you guys came up with during our Jan 9th 2009 trivia: George Sleight, Frankie Schneider, .Al Tasnady, Bill Wimble, Paul Deasey Jr., Stan Ploski, Sammy Beavers, Gerald Chamberlain, Jim Hendrickson, Dizzy Dean, Jan Opperman, Paul Fitzcharles, Jim Baker, Al Michalchuk, Bobby Abel, Dick Tobias, Bob Pickell, Bobby Braxton, Budd Olsen, Jackie McLaughlin, Will Cagle, Dick Havens, Elton Hildreth, Jim Smith, Clate Huston, Dave Kelly, Norman Kidd, Herb Tilman, Kenny Weld, Freddy Adams, Billy Osmun, Van May, Marshall Whitsel, Donnie Varner, Jimmy Boyd, George Tet, Kenny Shoemaker, Bob Gerhart, Joe Kelly, Ray Neary. We're not sure about all of them, but we're pretty sure all of those listed above drove the Big Donkey at least once. |

George Jr. |
You can add the name of Gary Butler (U2 Gary) to that list as well. If memory serves me correctly, it was the week after Gary destroyed his U2 in the Daniel Boone race. He got the ride for the night but the car had mechanical issues and I don't remember him running more than his heat race. |

I have a listing that Donnie Allison drove the Deasey car at least once in 1965. |
05.28.22 | 3-Wide | I wonder if that would have been Don Allison (Dave Haupt) (Joe Kelly?). What track? |
