The SC race on The Mile at Springfield was '95. I think He won the midget race, I ran fourth and my teammate Kevin Doty ran fifth for Rusty Kunz. Before the midget race that day Kenny asked me to spot for him in the Silver Crown race so after the midget race I quickly changed and went into the stands to spot. I think that was my first time spotting. It was a lot of fun watching that race. Most people didn't start to notice his run until he got close to the front but I had the privilage of seeing the whole thing. Then my dad and I went back to The Mile in '96 a won the midget race. Kenny ran second in the 9 car. For me and my dad that was a huge win considering who we had to out run. Kenny didn't like to loose but I truly believe he was very happy for us. Thanks to everyone for sharing your happy memories.
