Billy best was I think a 5.11 at the TOB in lindy in 1978. If I remember right it broke a long standing record of West Sayville's, Patchogue knocked it down to 5.05 in 82 then the Snails with Shawn brought it to 5.04, I started throwing for shawn in 1985 and the 5.04 was before me so I'm thinking 1984. Your welcome Twan.....

"B" Ladder is definately the hardest event to run great times like these guys have. Twan, great job on these.

Todd Stubbman? Thanks, I changed the first post to fix the spelling. (Sorry Todd). I didn't know all of the last names.

Sitting, The Snails did it in the early 80's Running in Hicksville a 5.19 and Islip Terrace a 5.20 at their respective Labor day tournaments. The B-ladder team was Driver: Doug Chivvis, Digger's Robert Pflug, Bobby Brandenberger, Slammer Thom Weckerle, and Climber Billy Kienle. We went to Hicksville to run Ladders and after C-Ladder loaded up and made it to the Terrace to run the whole tournament. I was lucky enough to witness it cause I ran first man in three man ladder with Billy and Tommy.

Patchogue has never run a "4" in "B" Ladder. Our team record is 5.05 (Jim Metz), 1982.
Correction.....Patchogue's team record is 5.02 (Jim Metz) at Central Islip, July 27, 1985.

I think we've talked about this before...
This is the most prestigious club in Fire Racing, but who are the best climbers who are not a part of this list?

hmmm.... ok well i used to be amazed by the late Paul Jordan when he climbed for West Hempstead (and Merrick), he was very exciting to watch, also Pat Cooke had a very long and noteworthy career with the Flukes.

Definately "Cav" in there, who could forget the memorable '92 States in Main-Transit? And Paul Jordan's got his 5.00 and 9.01.
God Bless them both.

I think Junior should be given some careful consideration.

I think Junior should be given some careful consideration. I hope I'm not the Junior you're talking about. I only ran one decent shot in B ladder at a 5.09. Next best is a 5.23. As for "C" ladder, yeah, a hand full of 8's, but not nearly as prestigious as the "4" group.....

And you have to mention Warren.
