It was a heavy, quick and somewhat tricky track tonite. The O'Connor's did a great job to get this in.

Shane Cottle had Epperson's car humming and Ballou was elbows up tonite. In fact the battle between the 2 might have been the best I've seen all year.

Enjoyed the RaceSavers as well, first time I've ever seen them run.

Best wishes to DD on his retirement. Lot of active drivers should take note on how Dave conducted himself, on and off track. I doubt you could find anyone to say anything bad about Dave. That's rare in this day and age.

JMO. Dont mean to be to forward but Id like to think he could serve the sport in some other capacity on a team or with USAC. PS missed his last race as a driver but hope to catch his first race as a fan at GC tonight

Did the track have any kind of ceremony for Dave?
