WOW! What a great night of racing. Helfrich proved once again why he runs the best track around. Track was reworked after Qualifying and befoe the feature. Congrats to Fitz, kid was hauling ass!

Congrats to Blake and Jon. When I read through this I'm not sure if it was really explained. The wreck that took out Levi happened at the start of the straightaway after everyone scattered to miss BC who slid to a stop in turn 3. The yellow may have already been out when they crashed. BC went to the back and came all the way to 4th. I'm not sure I have seen him drive harder since this same race last year. That was one hell of a drive.

Shout out to flag man Mo Wills. He was the main flagman for the night. Think tonight showed how TSS/MSCS officials are just about as good as they get. One weekend they have an MSCS shirt on the next they got a USAC official shirt on.

I think we'll be seeing plenty of both Fitzpatrick boys in victory lane for years to come. The Fitzpatricks used to come over to Illinois and race micro sprints with us at Pike County, and both Blake and Braylon did very well.

BC wasn't the cause of the big wreck at the beginning of the race. It was a chain reaction from DC spinning in 3 and 4 piling up the field.

i agree with him driving the hell out of that thing, there for about 5 laps he could not get around the 71 and the 1x i thinnk and slow him down....but there was caution and he was on the move again...what a race!!! sometimes i get frustrated at Tri-state speedway for always redoing the track, but after the A-mains i always leave excited!!!

Never said he was the cause of the wreck. He stopped before they all wrecked and the yellow was out when DC spun and caused the mayhem on the front stretch.

As for bc running from the tail to 4th after the spin, ya it was impressive but I wish I could of seen it happen without him running over 4 cars in the process. Plenty of race track to get around other cars no need to go through them. All and all great race.

After watching that pathetic show at Bloomington I was made to appreciate Haubstadt even more.

I probably wouldn't go as often if they didn't rework the track. Tri-State has the best racing of any track around

I was watching BC as much as I was the leaders and he got a wheel into Bland but I didnt see him "run into 4 cars in the process" who else did he "run over"??
