Congratulations on your first USAC win! Started up front and lost the lead a couple times. No panic and got the lead back twice. 20-30 feet from taking the checkers and the red flag comes out. Just as cool as the wind over the Rockies you stayed poised, had a good restart, hit your marks and now your in the USAC winners column.

Chief, you’re not wrong. I didn’t have Carson on my bingo card last night but he did a really great job. Caught a break when he jumped the cushion and the yellow came out, but that’s racing.
Lots of disappointment last night, but I’m still glad I went. I know there’s people right now asking, can we get Joe back?

Absolutely, and great to see the Epperson Painting number 2 back in the winners circle as well. Takes me back to when Eric Gordon was a youngster.

I'm just curious, what was the "lots of disappointment last night", Saturday night? I see no other comments referring to this. Nor do I see any on Facebook. I was there Friday night. Feature was done just before 10pm. Multi groove track. Well run show.

What happened and who all wants Joe back?

[flagboy55]

Ok, I was there Saturday, watched from home Friday and was hoping for a duplicate. The 3 folks I was with were disappointed with the track, and the unnecessary support class. I had one friend say that the Capital of Cush had been turned into the realm of rubber. I don’t want to get into a fight about it, but if you compare the two nights, well you don’t have to be a brain surgeon to see the difference. Like I said, I’m glad I went, but when you see the program drop of that dramatically, well it’s just a disappointment. I don’t mean to hi Jack the thread either, big hat shake to Carson

As a weekly entrant at LPS I can assure you I’m not asking for Joe back. 2nd day of a 2 day show with temps in the 90s all week. Not the first or last track to take rubber. Winner was on the cushion was he not?

[flagboy55]

97, yes the winner was on top. And if a track is going to take rubber, I prefer it on the high side. You make a great point about sun and temp. They don’t have a weather app on their phone?

Hey Richie,
What % of the time does the front row win?
Thanks

Chief Wahoo, I was expecting you to comment on Carson's win, we talked about him @ Belleville when we met for the first and only time/yes Carson started in open wheel cars with Rocky Mountain Midget Racing Association and all of us in Colorado are so happy for him!

I was there for both the USAC Sprints and the 305 Sprints. The 305 Sprints feature did not start until Midnight. Which a friend of mine was in.

I thought the night just dragged on slowly due to multiple reasons.
