I love the Silver Crown cars as much or more than anyone and far and away prefer open wheel cars to ARCA or modifieds on dirt, or most anything else that races on dirt. Generic unlimited dirt late models don't do anything for me either.

That said, the race Labor Day Monday afternoon is the worst ARCA race I've seen at Du Quoin and I've seen 20 of them dating back to 1994.

I'm not making excuses for the ARCA guys and have no particular allegiance to the sanction or the participants, but believe me when I tell you Monday was by far the exception and absolutely not the rule. Those guys, a lot more often than not, put on a great show at Du Quoin. And that goes for Springfield, as well.

The ARCA dirt races should not be judged by this year's race at Du Quoin.
