Even cooler to see JJ Hughes take a moment for a young boy by giving and signing a shirt. I don't know the circumstances of the occasion, but that young boy was JJ's biggest fan on the backstretch.

That is what I loved about infield pitting at THAT. I loved seeing all the kids along the fence line and caution tape watching the drivers and crew members wrench. I have also heard a story about Jesse Hocket or Robert Ballou playing frisbee with someone on the infield. This stuff is what makes the next generation of sprint car fans that this sport needs. Shame that insurance or risk stopped the pitting on the infield (I know some drivers hated it, but fans loved it).
