This is of course unofficial Frank but I had it like this: Cottle, Coons Jr., Short, Gurley, Thomas Jr., Weir, Ballou, Boespflug, Taylor and Grant. Again, that is totally unofficial. Gurley got a tremendous run off of the cushion in turns three & four to sling shot that thing forward on the final lap.
Agree with everything you said Frank. Kokomo Speedway produces some of the best traditional sprint car races anywhere. My hats off to the O'Connor's for making this place what it is today.
Glad to see all of the drivers climb out of their cars after flipping. Turns 1 & 2 grabbed three of them again tonight. This was a very entertaining show. 2 & 3 wide racing and it seemed wicked fast tonight.
The only surprise to me was that more of the drivers didn't use the cushion in the feature. Clayton didn't venture up there much and Darland really didn't either. I figured he for sure would be up there. Not often you see him get lapped especially at Kokomo.
