12/23/02	Palmco & Jim Rossell	August of 1971, in Gil Hearn's car because Gil was in the hospital. Tommy didn't have a ride that night.
03/11/03	Mark Southcott	Tommie is 3rd on the Wall Modified win list with 58 victories from 1953-1975. He was the Wall Modified champion in 1954,1960,1962, and 1967.....
04/09/03	Kevin Newman	Just so happens that Tommie's favorite driver was Gil Hearne!! Kevin Newman
02/04/04	MerJer	I remember Tommie in the 1st turn fence in the 2jr with the throttle stuck and tires boiling! Believe Don Stives ran across the track during the red flag to hit the kill switch (he drove the sister car and knew where the kill switch was!) Also remember him driving the Graff #88 towards the end of his driving days.
05/28/06	Charlie Roberts	Notice that Tommie (who gave me my first ever announcing job at New Egypt) is wearing his All Star Racing League helmet. Also, yes Don Stives did get the motor to stop on the 2 Jr. that night but, he did it by throwing his jacket over the injector tubes to cut off the airflow.
01.29.11	Brett Werth	It was actually my dad, Bill Werth and Ralph Mauser who ran from the pits to kill the engine.
