I do have a comment/question about the B main. Many people, including me, were positive that Dickie Gaines finished fourth by several feet over Kyle Cummins. A friend and I remarked how disappointed the Cummins team would be after making the tow from Princeton. I guess our sight line must have been deceiving.
Ron, you are right on with the Peeden effort. At times it looked like he hung on to the top too long and several cars in the train got by him but he was persistent, came back, and made the top work. That was the best part of the SS feature. We were seated in turn 4 for a change and got a different look at the Cummins/Gaines finish. Gaines was low and Cummins was high. It appeared that Gaines was about a wheel ahead in the middle of 4 but Cummins just exploded off the top. I wasn't at the line, but it was pretty evident that Cummins got there first.
