Just want to give a shout out for Jacob Wilson and the great drive he had last night in the USAC sprints at Richmond. It was a shame that suspension failure ruined his and the teams night. This kid has come a long way in just a few years and has a bright future ahead of him.:applaud::thumb

Dwight, I agree with you 100%, Jacob was very impressive last night before his car broke. I hope Jacob has better luck in the SC car.

Dwight,

I was impressed with Jacob and his run at the Little 500. Unfortunately, we was involved in someone else's mess and was finished for the evening. That is not a place where rookies often shine and he was up on the wheel:Steerand holding his own before the wreck. I agree that the kid has a bright future.:thumb

All it took for me to be impressed with Jacob Wilson was that run he had at Winchester early in the year. He handled that place like he'd been racing it for ten years.

I agree with all. His future is bright.

He had to be one of the top 3 fastest cars on the track until the wreck... Kid's a hammer :respect:

The kid also has a great personality. Met him and his brother at Columbus last year and they seemed like a nice bunch of boys. Good luck to the team.

Saw him at Orlando thought he ran good. Both times at Winchester he has been awesome. Maybe for me the most impressive Winchester debut since Robbie Stanley.

I agree with Gregg 100%. He took to the High Banks like he was a experienced ringer there.
