HALL OF FAME: Gary "Too Tall" Morse

Inducted January 22nd, 2022

Gary Morse was a part of CCD history when the track opened back up in the late 80's! Many Racers have made laps, won racers, and won championships over the last 35 years, and alongside Chad Isley, "Too Tall" is easily one of the most successful to ever fire it up. His 25 years racing here was among some of the most competitive years to ever exist. Back when S/P averaged 50 cars each week, Gary was not only a fixture in the Top 10, but won multiple Track Championships in 1991, ‘96, ‘97 and then again in 2007. He was racing in different eras against different drivers, but always managed to be in the hunt at the end of every race day.

Gary's always been given credit as the man who invented the "Buy Back Split," but truth of the matter was he didn’t really have to change his race routine at any time. He was as cool as they come, he was always in the game, and because of that he was always in the Top 10.

If CCD had a Mt. Rushmore, it would have hall-of-famers, Chad Isley, Bob Paul, Max Lang and now Gary Morse.  Whether in the Chevy II or the Vega, he had more S/P wins during his time than anyone else. He was tough as hell on his opponents but remained a classy competitor.
