Very enjoyable evening at the Action Track; the wind was blowing from the right direction for a change (if you were seated in the grandstand) and the on track product was very competitive all evening. A lot of people grumble when the modifieds are run before the sprints (and I've been guilty of that), but that has become the norm at TH, so I have decided to anticipate that in advance. I thought the modifieds put on a pretty good show last night. Ken Schrader pulled it off, but he had plenty of competition. I was on the road by a little after 9:00PM, and you can't beat that!
Dave Darland made an absolutely amazing drive from his fifth starting spot, and would have almost certainly been the victor, had it not been for the red and yellow flags.
BTW, didn't the announcer state it was to be a forty lap feature as the cars were lining up?
