    As most race fans, specifically NASCAR fans and fans of other forms of stock car racing, probably know by now, racing legend Dick Trickle died last week from what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Trickle wasn’t among the winningest drivers in NASCAR, but he was considered, one of — if not the — winningest drivers in all of stock car racing, as the Wisconsin native dominated the short tracks of Wisconsin and throughout the midwestern United States. He also had a personality that made others, including his fellow competitors love to be around him and talk to him.
