That was on my short list, too. The first 15 laps or so of that race was some of the best Midget racing I've ever seen. Two future Hall of Famers, going at it tooth and nail, racing each other clean, for that many laps, is hard to top. I was just really blown away by the way Ricky caught and just flat checked out on both of those guys. And then after the yellow, how he nearly ran the table again, from the back. With a car that obviously had sustained some front end damage, on the incident that brought out the yellow. That guy attacks Eldora like Daron Clayton attacks Haubstadt. Regardless, I already had my money's worth by about lap 5 of the Midget feature.
