All photos are being posted here (I'm about halfway done uploading): http://www.apexonephoto.com/USAC-Silver-Crown-Toledo
A dejected Jacob Wilson leaves the #07 Wilson Bros. entry after hitting the turn 4 wall while leading. #99 Brian Tyler and #91 Dave Darland do a few exhibition laps in the new fenderless Studebakers... Not sure if Levi is telling Bud "I bet I beat you by one position!" Whether it's jackrabbits, entire flocks of Canadian geese or in this case groundhogs, there is always some wildlife in the Toledo infield. The helmet and gloves of Shane Hmiel sit atop the #17 Rotondo Weinrich machine |

I have a short video clip of Brian Tyler in the Gold Crown car.http://apexonephoto.smugmug.com/gall...336_eW7yX-A-LB. If it doesn't play well, pause it and let it buffer.
I agree about it being a drama filled day with a few storylines and some good racing throughout the field. Anybody who thinks pavement sucks, had to see Clauson sliding around while getting around Tyler. T. Swanson and Tracy Hines had some real close racing before the wreck. |

Nice shots. I thought the Gold Crown had gone extinct. Must have thought wrong.

The regional midgets had only eleven cars. They ran two 6 lap heat races. At the mid way mark of the 25 lap feature there were only 6 midgets still on the track.
However, one does not go to a silver crown race to watch midgets. There were only 20 silver crown cars present. What they may have lacked in numbers was more than made up for with quality. In spite of very limited promotion, there was a sizable crowd at the track. It appears that Saturday afternoon races during college football season can be sucessful. In addition silver crown cars can provide a very good show on 1/2 mile paved ovals. |

Thanks for the shots! Great race with many twists and turns both for the win and the championship. Did anyone notice the day long smile on Rollie Beale's face? Kudos to USAC and ARCA for their cooperative efforts to make a true racing champion's day one to remember. I can't wait until next year's Rollie Beale 150.
