I’m not sure how many of you remember, but last year’s Chili Bowl Race of Champion’s, for some reason that defies explanation, felt that the great Sam Swindell didn’t fit the definition and was excluded from the event. The absence of the invitation was not taken lightly by those of us who know Sammy’s accomplishments at this event and of course his overall super stardom. Well it appears that they have realized the error of their ways and Slammin Sammy is back in the ROC this year. But don’t you have to ask yourself how the heck he ever gets uninvited in the first place. That kinda mistake is on par with building Silver Crown Cars to run on mile and a half tracks. My opinion is they could name the race the Swindell Race of Champions, after all the drillers won by Sam and Kevin, and you’d be hard pressed to argue against it
