Late comments on the race. First starting with the field of cars... VERY good looking field. Did not look like any of the cars had been had just been pulled out of the barn. BIG STEP UP! Quality field. Probablly the best field of cars I have ever seen in 18 years. Along with this came crews taking the race much more seriouse. It looked as if most of the teams were prepaird to make pit stops. That is not always the case. The racing... Very pleased with the action. Lot of give and take this year, that made the entire race fun to watch. Track Crew.... Still very gun shy over the incident from a few years ago. I think it is time to get 2 or 3 4wheelers or utv's to move cars around. I can not stand it when a guy has to stop to avoid a crash, and he gets penalized 5-8 laps. one guy can not push a sprint car around. lets get that guy on a 4wheeler. 
. Moving on I want to thank the drivers for not following that follow the leader Usac mold. Levi on lap 11 jumping on the high side and passing cars like crazy. Everyone was willing to race. The end... how great would the ending had been if they were both on the lead lap. Lets face it, Eric let shane go. Man that would have been a heck of a finish. Hats of to the Contos team, they were not a front row team. Jacob Wilson WILL WIN THIS RACE SOON! That team is strong, and they know how to run these long races. Levi, heck of a job. Most USac teams wreck in the first hundred because they are not used to passing cars every single lap. You were a threat. Chet Fillip, man you amaze me. The car might be ugly, but I can not wait to see it again. What new tricks will you come back with??? A year is to long to wait. Eric Gordon, I tip my hat to you. You put on a heck of a show. Fun to watch you move to the front. I know you have earned all 9 victories, but this one really stands out to me. Great job. Thanks you one more time to the drivers for putting on one of the best little 500's I have seen.
I agree with all but this "Lets face it, Eric let shane go".. I highly doubt that, being that put him back on the lead lap with 57 laps togo.. 1 caution flag ruins that whole theory.. and even after the fact, shane walked away.. how ever, like you said.. 1 of the best little 5's yet..
