Greg Trammell

[beanboy89]

Over the weekend, my friend and I went to the flea market, and my friend got a bunch of 1/43rd Racing Champions cars from circa 1990-1993. One of them was Greg Trammell in the #18 Melling/Bill Elliott Ford. I also believe he has the 1/64th of the same car.

Neither my friend or I have ever heard of Greg Trammell. I read online that he only competed in one Busch Series race in 1992, and that was in the #11 Ford.

Anyone have any info on this #18 Melling car that Racing Champions made?

I think it's an ARCA car.

It is indeed an ARCA car. After having that car since 1992, I didn't see the real thing until 2006 when I bought a collection of VHS tapes of races which included the Pocono ARCA race from 91. At least I think that was the race I saw it on, I forget now. He was apparently touted as Bill Elliott's protoge and "the next big thing"....It did not happen. I don't know where he is now or what happened to him.
