For HRP tonight.

I don't believe that they ever got a drop of rain out at Beaumont last night, either.

18 is what they said I believe and that counts Leon Bacon in the back-up 99 car. Also sounded like Leon and Ballou got together earlier in the night but I wasnt listening then.

Yeah, you might say that they got together. Ballou ended up on his head. Got the car back out before the end of the red flag. The track really didn't start to slick off until the feature. Even then, it looked like everyone was going to have a problem getting around Bacon (Brady) who started on the front row. Hockett spun early and was sent to the back, but worked his way into contention. It was a great race and I can say that the folks here in Houston that DON'T get to see this kind of racing were astounded. I don't recall ever hearing a crowd at HRP being that vocal. The promoter was a little disappointed in the low car count, but was certainly all smiles in victory lane after the race. Attendance was in the 4,000+ range. Pictures are currently being uploaded.
