I wish I would have went last night. Cool that Wimmer picked up the win.
While I agree the Midwest All Star Series is a joke of a touring series, if you didn't realize it is not the same as the All Star Circuit of Champions that is your own fault. Webb runs this series also but it is not nearly as popular as it was as the Mid American Sprint Series before Webb took it over. The predecessor to that, the Great Lakes Outlaw Sprint Series, was excellent and included events throughout Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Illinois. Regulars like Kraig Kinser, Danny Smith, Kelly Kinser, Brandon Wimmer, Boston Reid, Paul May, Todd Kelly, Ken Mackey, and many others were fun to watch. It was always cool to see non-wing regulars from the tracks around Indiana (Kevin Briscoe, Dickie Gaines, Michael Burthay, Shane Hollingsworth, Tyler Pearce to name a few) put on the wings and be competitive. 2002 to 2004 was an awesome period of racing for sprint cars in Indiana, both wing and non-wing.
