The facts are that some Sprints can only afford to race 1 or 2 nights a week. These people pay the same as the Sprints who could win, for tires, fuel and getting there. These car owners and drivers race for the fun of it and are not pro's like those who sometimes and often win. So I do give thanks to them for racing when they can afford to race. The drivers and car owners who are now winning races started out as also rans and only racing when they could afford to race. So in time these drivers will get better and start winning races. It is not a bad thing to be as also ran who only race when they can afford too as we need them and maybe they will be the future winners.

Racing was really good. Track was bad fast all night. Hopkins was in the mix around 5-6 early on and jumped the cushion in 2. Top 10 are as follows:
Swanson
Grant
KTJ
Bacon
Bilbee
Stockon
Ballou
Axsom
McDougal
Cummins (had to take a provisional)

We will just say probably not proper Sprint Car etiquette to call any driver “Also Ran”.

Can we include calling cars "backmarkers" as not proper Sprint Car etiquette?
