I not going to venture into the discussion of whether they should or should not have reworked the track, or debate the methods and the time delay.

But here are some interesting facts. While standing in the infield during the heats, I whipped out my trusty timepiece, and clocked the fastest lap by a heat winner at 13.95 by Jeff Bland and the others were in the mid and low 14:00 second ranges.

After the rework, I got Clayton on the clock with several laps in the mid to low 11:00's and one lap at at exactly 11:00 flat! He was gasin' it up!

After seeing that time I put my stupid stopwatch back in my pocket and enjoyed the show!

I also want to say THANK YOU to each and every person that showed up to support the Burton family, even those that left early. I know for a fact Jerry and Darlene were very pleased at the showing of love and support.

I am also pretty damn sure Josh Burton would have loved that hammer down feature that we all enjoyed in his honor.
