The Super Weekend was a neat race to run. I did have the privilege as a car owner to win the last Super Weekend ran in 1986 with Steve Butler as the driver.
It payed $2500 to win, both nights and that was a good pay day back then. I payed $50 for a RR (McCreary) and under $1.00 a galon for fule and pulled the car on a open trailor. I donated the Saturday night trophy to the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame several yrs. ago when Steve was inducted to the hall of fame. Jeff Stoops still has the Friday night trophy. They were both idenical in looks. I still have the winner circle picture with Joe Sheheen in it.
