Open Wheel (modified) - Tony Stewart
 

Tony showed up this morning to start tail end of a 24 car field that included Schrader, Bryan Shaw, and Shelby Howard from Indiana. Tony put on a show, made it up to second before time ran out, finishing runner up to Schrader. Tony was great in his interview after the race. I guess he's now back to Atlanta for the race tomorrow. This guy is such a racer

In a similar but unrelated story, last night at Eldora, with a car count of 52 UMP Modifieds, the winner was Matt Westfall. That guy's a pretty good racer, too.

That marked Matt's 3rd modified victory of the season(10th overall on the year).

6/5 Millstream
8/27 Waynesfield
9/4 Eldora

Matt will also be in competition at the World 100 this coming weekend!

I was watching the finals of the NHRA Nationals from Indy around 5:00 p.m. and just before the Top Fuel final they interviewed Tony on the starting line. He must have made a stop on his way back to Atlanta.

Darren, I'm pretty sure you meant Shelby Miles in stead of Shelby Howard.

Re: Open Wheel (modified) - Tony Stewart
 

You are correct! lol

And he won DuQuoin last year I believe

This is Tony . Him and Schrader were funny as hell in Victory lane. The race was the best mod race I've ever seen on a mile. Close racing and a lot of passing. The overcast sure helped.

Them aint no modifieds, lol. real modifieds have big blocks, and you sit in the middle.

Re: Open Wheel (modified) - Tony Stewart
 

That is correct!

And Tony put on one heck of a show!!! :22:
