Scared to run Eldora? Well Stanbrough has won there once (ran down Yeley from far behind best I remember hearing in 2003 when JJ was almost unbeatable) and I think Shane's best finish was second at the 4-Crown in 05. The Big E is a tough joint and there has been no real dominant driver in USAC competition there in recent years. Ballou might change that however.

I think it makes more sense for the Foxco bunch and some others to run at Haubstadt on Sat. which is paying $3000 to win and that is not a whole lot less than what's on the line at Eldora.
