I like rooting for this kid. My son really likes him and he puts 100% into his ride. Looking for big things out of the Kevn in 2009!

You are correct! Kevin Thomas, Jr did a very good job in 2008 with few parts, spares, and tools even after their trailer was stolen. In 2009 KT Jr will utilize a 2009 XXX frame and some other new additions in his quest for the 2009 MSCS championship!

Good luck in 2009 to Kevin Thomas, Jr and the KT Motorsports team!

The good thing is it sounds like most, if not all, of those mentioned will be returning this year, will that mean a driver who is 18 with three years experience driving a sprint car is still a young sprint car driver? One name I didn't see mentioned, Chad Boespflug.

Ethan Barrow is probably one of the best rookie drivers around in his first year he won a track championship at Paragon Speedway, he was also third in points at Bloomington and Rookie of the year at Bloomington.[COLOR="Black"]

Re: Young sprint car racers
 

Id say Blake fitzpatrick.... won his first feature this year!!!

Re: Young sprint car racers
 

I going to really be watching Justin Grant next year as he gains more experience. He really impressed me the few times I watched him. Heard he has a good deal lined up for 2010. He'll be one to watch along with a host of other very talented youngsters, (and veterans). 2010 will be a good year for the race fans around Indiana, can't wait!!!

Re: Young sprint car racers
 

I think that Blake Fitzpatrick deserves a national ride with the improvement that he has shown this year. HEEELLO TSR,KKR, J.WALKER, K. KUNZ, HOFFMAN,
