I wish you all would quit your crying on Dave Darland getting to start on the tail. Well he got to and he couldn't make it to the front to transfer. Just like he didn't make it in the 07 speedweek but he didn't have USUC to GIVE him a "provisional" so he could screw Jon Stanbrough out of the title.

What I really can't believe about race fans now days is how they think a driver should get to start a race with a "promotors choice" or "provisional". I remember the good ole days when you didn't make the show you loaded up and went home no matter who you where. Thats the way it should be.

Dave Darland had a little bit of tuff luck tonight, he raced Hud Cone hard in an awesome heat race and biked it going in turn 3 and turned it over a couple of times. He came back to win the C main but he did run over a good Jerry Ruble running 2nd to do it. Then in the B he got up to 8th and got in a little to hard and tapped the car in front of him and spun. After going to the tail he didn't have time to get back to the front to transfer. There were some very good cars up front he might not have passed anyway. There ya go, thats what happened to DD.

NOBODY had anything for "Cowboy" .....
