One thing that has not been mentioned is that the 20 lap feature went green to checkered (after the double flip following the 'no start') and all the minis/Focus finished on the lead lap. Given that the mini's run the low groove and the full midgets have several lanes to run outside, everyone has plenty of racing room and nobody is holding up anyone else. Track prep before the feature gave the midgets more bite at the beginning, and as expected they were able to use their superior HP to get to the front. In our visits to Montpelier last year a slicker track evened out the cars as HP was less of an issue. Regardless, we had a great time Saturday, enjoying the big car count and crowd, and look forward to coming back in August.
