Im a Buckeye born and bred, spent my youth thinking there was no racing above Eldora until I moved to Phoenix in 1993-94 for about 7 months. Boy were my eyes opened in a hurry! The best sprint car race I have ever seen to this day took place on the small track. As I recall, it was a 30 lap feature and the top 4 battled hard and heavy, trading slider after slider until none other than Bob Kinser hopped a wheel on lap 20 battling for the lead. Bob climbed out, looked the car over, climbed back in, restarted from the tail and within 5 laps was back at the front battling for the win. To this day I can't remember who won(Mike Boat maybe), but I will never ever forget the race.
