Another great race at Kokomo. Just as it looked as though Cottle was going to check out early with Ballou and Levi in tow they began to real him in and before you knew it there was Coons, Darland, KT, Weir and Short racing 3 wide with slide jobs galore.
Ballou traded leads with Levi several times before finally taking control but as he caught lapped traffic near the end Levi and Darland made one last attempt to catch him but run out of time. Great racing tonight all night long and out on the road by about 8:30 !

That's how you run a Sunday night show! Great race!!!!!!

Great night of racing only downer I heard was Chad Boespflug and Chuck Gurney vehicles being severely damaged in the parking lot during racing....I really hope these kinds of race fans stay home from now on! It's hard enough racing not knowing if you're coming home with a check or not let alone coming out to a damaged vehicle. It's definitely not Kokomo's fault - you can't watch all the cars all the time....but these kind of immature acts really make a bad name for the sport - and the fans will stay home too if it starts happening to them.

Re: kokomo updates anyone????
 

Not sure what you were drinking but i did NOT see Chuck Gurney at the race track tonight ! I did however see Chris Gurley !!!!!!

Re: kokomo updates anyone????
 

Chuck was parked next to Chad at the track - I believe he has maybe been helping Parker Price Miller, he even tweeted about the damage to his car. And I'm sober BTW......

@ChuckGurney It's hard to have anything nice to say when there's slums rolling thru @kokomospeedway keying @chadboespflug & my car #impissed #KARMA

Left kokomo at 820 hauled the mail home and laying in bed at 11 20 in evansville.. awesome day

It's a Kercher.
A Claxton won't run long enough to make it to victory lane.

Kercher was in the victory lane photo. I'm guessing he didn't build the rearend or the tires.
Claxton might have built it but Kercher fixed it.
That's a Stanton Mopar if you want to get real technical.
It's the last guy that freshened it and shows up in victory lane.
KERCHER!

So obviously you didn't see the Kerchers in in the group in victory lane getting their pics taken?
Claxton originally built the motor. The Kercher's re-did it.
Mr. Baldwin is now using Kercher Engines.

Great coverage of the race by XSAN, loved seeing a mystery race that turned out being Sprint Cars! Figured it would be something I had no interest but I was completely wrong.

Anybody know if Josh Spencer held on for a top 10? His heat race was stellar and thought he was driving just as well in the A when I watched him.

Appreciate it! Didn't think about the KISS sight. I checked the track page and didn't see it. Too bad the results are not indicative of the performance for Josh. I know a few times I didn't know where to look w/ good racing all over. Gonna be a good year!!

Re: kokomo updates anyone????
 

I thought Josh did an excellent job of racing at Kokomo its the best I've seen him do. Hopefully he grabs a couple A mains this year I think he has a shoot if he keeps his car running as good as last night

Re: kokomo updates anyone????
 

Thanks everybody, we had some gremlins on our first night out. When we hot lapped the car would not run in the corners so being in the second heat we had very little time to sort it out, after the heat Josh thought it was the barrell valve as the car shut off in the corners. Claxton to the rescue, seems our gauge was off, should have been set at 20 and it was at 40. After reseting the barrell valve we had forgot that we had to redue the idle so in the feature the car idled at 29 instead of 15. Silly stuff that can turn the night around real fast.

As always thanks goes out to the fans as they are beside us all the way, thank you Jeff Claxton and Jeff Walker both you guys have been a great help to Josh, both Jeffs go out of there way to help us.

And a huge thank you to the staff at the Kokomo Speedway for running the best show around great show and people on the road by 8:30.

A new gauge and another weekend to maybe drink some warm beer with Grant and Claxton. :)
