As everyone can see we all have our favorites, you will get no argument from me on any of the choices.
Showing my age and geographic location I am going with Joe Delorenzo.
If you have to ask I am sorry you never got to see him drive, I was lucky enough to hang around him and to just listen to him talk about racing and Chevys was something else.
We lost a great one way to soon.

Kevin Helms won 3 straight World Titles if I recall right. Pretty hard to do better than that.
Jim Waldo won many times over the years in various cars. Also tough to match his record....
Jim Hughes was another racer that sure could win the big races....

Many guys did well for a few years and could be listed but I don't think anyone could match the previous 3....

Alan Peters was always one of my favorites from this area....and way back....Truman Fields with his Hard Times Firebird.....

Well if it's no holds barred.......

How about Kenny Dondero driving Bob Panella's Anglia running a 292CI Small Block Chevy with a blower and a 4 speed in B/GS........................

No Clutchless Transmissions...........

No Slipper Clutches.................
