yes, the Action Track is back and as racey as ever. if the promoters got a black eye from anything it was the dust problem, which never would have happened if mother nature would have let us race friday night, as was scheduled. but as everyone else has stated, the last 5 laps were worth the price of admission, with "the Rocket" doing slide jobs on Ballou every lap in turn 2 and Ballou powering back past him down the back stretch. 2 things to note for the evening, Ballou's very flat left rear in victory lane and the "spectacular" trophy given to Robert Ballou in victory lane, inside a glass display box was a very life-like figure of Don Smith holding up a huge check. kudos to DHK Promotions for saving THAT and for honoring a huge fan of racing, Don Smith. dust washes off...memories last forever! bob:checkered:
