You just cannot beat the bare knuckled brawl of a non wing sprint car race. A Silver Crown race is different, a unique combination of grace and brutality. Two dozen screaming, snarling injected V-8 motors at full song being manhandled at the extreme edge of traction and sanity for 100 laps is to quote IOW alumni ISFclassic poetry in motion”. I envy those Indiana residents with a choice of sprint car venues at hand each weekend. Still, I would not pass up the rare experience of a champ car race on dirt, especially under the lights at DuQuoin.
