With Indiana Sprint Week just around the corner I would like to ask folks to share their favorite memory or moment from years past.

2004 Twin Cities. JJ Yeley's last corner pass for the win.

Don't remember the year but it was my first time at kokomo. My dad and I were walking through the pits and just were impressed by how many people used to make the trek from California each year.

Terry Pletch's first and only career USAC win in the 1999 Indiana Sprintweek opener at Terre Haute. Won it from the last row!!! Aired live on ESPN2.

Wasn't there but watched it on TV. Great to see the underdog win once in a while.

As far as I'm concerned, that was the greatest drive I have ever seen. He started well back in the pack and kind of got lost in the shuffle. For some reason, I really felt he had a chance to shine that night. Watching him put that sprint car in places that it really shouldn't have fit was very exciting to watch. Going into 3 and coming off of 4 he looked like he was shot out of a cannon. I kinda just sat there asking did that really happen?
Sad to see Twin Cities fall into the wrong hands and no longer be a part of sprint week. I saw a lot of good racing there in the day.
