Ebenezer Charles Mortimer Henry Edward DeAndre Quiggles, Jr. is a Canadian-Sealandic race car driver. He is the first and only driver in any major series to represent Sealand. He is most known for being one of a few drivers to win races in the TM Lights series and the ARLA Elite Series. He is the protege of TM Master Cup Series stalwart Marcos Leonard. Quiggles, Jr. has only attempted one TM Master Cup Series, that being in Decatur in 2008 when he failed to pre-qualify.
2010[edit | edit source]
Quiggles, Jr. managed to score a pair of wins in the TM Junior Series and earned a reputation for having few consistent performances.
2012[edit | edit source]
Quiggles, Jr. made a move to the ARLA Elite Series for the 2012 campaign, where he took the wheel of car No. X/0 (read as "X Divided By Zero" or just "Division By Zero"), and carried sponsorship from the Marcos Leonard Institute for Division By Zero (hence the "number"). Just as he had in TM Lights, Quiggles, Jr. drove for Marcos Leonard's Fluffy Penguin Onionburger Team. He started the season very quietly, but that changed when he took his first win during the first race of the 2012 FABricators 250 at the Grand Detour of Southern Illinois. He continued his strong performances by scoring another win at Mosport in questionable conditions.
Quiggles, Jr. has been viewed as an opportunistic individual. During the 2012 Mini Indy 500 pre-qualifying, Quiggles, Jr. entered as the championship leader. ARLA had added a provisional place on the starting grid for the highest car in points that failed to qualify. Quiggles, Jr. and his team were accused of sandbagging after they ran outside of the transfer places and got into the race via the provisional.
These accusations resurfaced after Quiggles, Jr. battled with the Math Motors entry driven by Phillip Borland and the Peter Irving Gray Sports entry driven by J.W. Lester. After Borland dropped out, Quiggles, Jr. cruised to a fairly easy win despite a cut tire in segment two.
Since several of Quiggles, Jr.'s points rivals legitimately failed to make it in, Quiggles, Jr. was accused of breaking the spirit of the regulations ARLA had set forward. Others praised Quiggles, Jr. and Leonard's ability to figure out how to abuse the rules before some of the established teams were able to.
Despite accusations that he was violating the spirit of the ARLA rules, Quiggles, Jr. neither confirmed or denied that he had done so on purpose.
Quiggles, Jr. leads the ARLA Elite Series championship by a fair margin entering the Rockford 200, with a series-high four victories in his rookie campaign.
