I thought Shane won a Midget race at Montpelier in 2005 with the old XR2 series, or was that possibly Jimmy Light?

i think they split that race into two features. twin 25's or something like that but i don't remember who one them. Shane was there though. He and his dad helped me load my car after i flipped down the front stretch after breaking a rear axle in the second feature.

If memory serves me correctly, didn't Shane Cottle win them both?

Shane Hollingsworth ran the Don Moore 10 Sesco that evening and ran second to Cottle. He tried every which way to get around him but Cottle held the bottom and won.

Yes he did, his car owner passed away suddenly a week before the race at Montpelier. They had a nice field of cars that night.
