Think most of the top USAC guys have experience at Granite from the Gold Crown days. The first couple of Gold Crown years they ran non-wing sprints also. I know Windom took a nasty ride in a sprint during one of those sprint shows.
Top USAC guys that I know of that have ran at I-55 are Bacon, Darland, and Courtney. Ballou may have ran an Outlaw show there but can't remember correctly.

Was Windom the one that stuck it in the front stretch fence? I was at the Gold Crown either the 2nd or 3rd year of it & one of the non wing cars took a hard ride into the front stretch fence. I thought he was coming right on through it but fortunately the cables did their job & kept him in bounds. It was scary though.
