I can't recall how many there were in that one, but 17 is not even close. There was a red early on for a rollover in Turn 3 - Kyle Patrick, a.k.a. the Tilbury Tornado, as TJ used to call him when he was the play-by-play man for SOD.

But how many yellows......? Not enough that sticks out in my memory.

Chad Blonde was just way too god for anyone else that night.

I can remember a night a few years back where they called the Sprint Feature on time. It was so long ago, the scoreboard in the infield was working. The lap counter changed to a running clock. I thought that was odd that night for the feature was not really dragging on. I just think it was because it was nearly breakfast time.

No, Butler has to get a handle on their modified class. It has gotten out of hand how long some of the heats and mains can go now. I would like to see a rules for heats as if you cause a yellow flag, you go straight to the B Main or tail end of the A Main, as applicable for car count. Cause a yellow in the B, you are out for the night. Two yellows in the A Main.... done. These guys will keep their cars running and rolling if you start enforcing rules of the sort.
