Heck of a race. The battle between Swindell & Windom was fantastic all night long. The last 10 laps were crazy as the drivers hung it all out there. Have never walked away disappointed at The Magic Mile.

[SpfldMile]

I agree! Great race, beautiful night, good friends, Big cars on a mile... Doesn't get much better.

[Rpracing1]

Close battles thru out the field. Bear takes the old man with 3 to go. Crown races and Fair grounds just seem to go well together. Tough luck to Grant. Good night and now off to Haubstadt!

[miledirt]

It really was a darn near perfect night at DuQuoin.... solid car count and field, perfect weather, very good crowd and a spectacular race with a back and forth finish. The series looked strong last night!

[ThePurple73]

Great night of Silver Crown racing. I liked seeing the AJ Foyt car pace the field. I wished all cars looked like that again.

Jeff Swindell put on quite a show. Windom was really close to the inside guard rail at times.
Quite a battle with Cockrum, Bacon at the end. Impressive drive by Casey Shuman.

The whole event with the fair and race is something you hope never changes. It's pure racing.

The Silver Crown cars deserve their own day/night. Maybe they can consider giving the Modifieds their own night/day at the fair.

It would be cool to be able to a have a couple dates a year at the big miles.
