Looks like some new teams have developed again this year growing the dirt contenders. Should be interesting to see how some of these new teams fair against the established ones.

I had to go looking for Bonne Terre, MD. and wondering why I never heard of Danny Long before. That should be MO not MD.

Absolutely. It is great to see familiar teams returning after long absences or even new teams joining the series.

Also be sure to check out the USAC Silver Crown From the Beginning to Today page on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/288097101334680/ as Greg Hardy is doing a pick em game for each Silver Crown event this season. 1 round (Toledo) is in the books. It is tight, and is a lot of fun. Well worth checking out!
