Dick Trickle dead in apparent suicide

Finishing last
Nah, met a Major, when I was on contract in the pentagon, named Dick Head. That's right, Major Dick Head. He was so upset when he made Lt. Colonel.

No Lie.

Damned glad to meet you
Trivia;
His name was used in the movie 'Days of Thunder' for Tom Cruise's character, Cole Trickle. Probably afraid to use his real first name D i c k.

May you rest in peace Mr. Trickle.

That's sad, but honestly I had no idea he was 71, I knew he'd be around for quite some time, always laughed at his name when I was in my teens.

Dick Trickle: The only driver in NASCAR who had a functioning cigarette lighter in his car. :killingme



A fan once asked him how many cigarettes he smoked during a race. Trickle responded, "I don't know, how many cautions were there?" :roflmao:

After he won a Busch race in 1997, he got out of the car and asked NASCAR if it meant he got free beer. :lol:
