It was just a big mistake on his part because he started on the pole and was leading at the time.

Brady Short took a rough tumble in his heat, loaded and left, car was hurt and word was Brady's back was in some pretty bad pain. Hope he is ok. After Jeff Bland took his tumble Casey Shuman ck'd out, but Memmer slowly started reeling him in. and passed him going into turn 1 with 5 to go but the caution came out and Lil' Shu was never challenged after that.

You are righton Butch, Dakota did a heck of a job, just as he did in an earlier race at Bloomington, where he also finished 3rd after starting in the back. Also what is the deal with Twin Cities allowing any car that spins or wrecks being allowed to get their starting position back if they can restart?It is unfair to the drivers that stay clean on the start.By the time they had the 3rd or 4th restart the 2c car got pushed all of the way to the tail.
