Im in agreement on Mansfield having a big NW race. Even though the night I was there it was OVCS and FAST with Boss, The most T shirts I seen were NW and BOSS.. Besides, The hauds would run it if there's not a WoO race. Hometown track for them.

As for Kokomo, I had planned to go. Then after waking up hurting. I decided not too and buy the PPV. Well I was hurting so bad I didn't even buy the PPV and went to bed.

Glad you had a good night of racing. Glad your ok David Hair.

And how about Gage Walker, in the midget feature? He comes to Kokomo and just flat out wrestled second place away from Chris Windom! You have to really be on your game to come to this track and win this style of battle, with this driver.

Great night at the track!

Dave wasn't just the victim of a pick pocket though. He was also the victim of a slow lap car!

As usual, you are right on the mark Jerry. I also thought Gage drove a great race. He has a bright future and he and his family are super nice. Couldn't happen to better people.

Courtney started 4 or 5 rows behind Dave. He drove through more lapped traffic than Dave did. He won it fair and square.

I agree he won it fair and square but he did have some help from lap traffic.

Thank you. It's been pretty easy this year, because like Brent Goodnight said, night in and night out, from track to track, this group of drivers have just went at it tooth and nail. It's been one of the better years in a while.

Dave didn't make the excuse, I did. Unless you were referring to this Darland. Then you are right.
