Whitt is tearing it up in Kokomo this year. Is there a track championship on the way with all those wins.

A classic race with Whitt by a foot at the line over Faas. What else can you say! They didn't touch the track and it stayed fast all night with multiple grooves.

With a couple of laps left there were 4 lapped cars between Faas and Whitt, I still dont know how he got past them and caught him. Once Faas got past the lappers and into an open space I thought it was over. Great run by Gulick, he had passed Cottle for 4th then lost it back on the last lap. I agree with the post above about the track prep there. it LOOKS like it should be dry and dusty but it is always 2 grooves and racey as hell. I figured we would be eating dust tonight with the stiff breeze in our face but I didnt even touch the goggles I brought in.

Oh well it is early (late) and I have just finished the laundry and have got the car ready to be put back together for Gas City. Kokomo you guys did a great job with the race track, it was also nice that we finished in time to let the fans come to the pits and visit before going home. (sorry Bill) Cole you and your whole crew are a class act, karma is a good thing. I have a feeling that you are more than just a shooting star. Jerry, just glad I can go to the garden in the morning and relax, oh and the salad from the garden should help me to calm down. (Good night Chuck) |

I say this every week. Can it get any better than Kokomo? The track surface was excellent and they didn't even have to touch it even with a heavy car count (mods, thunder cars and sprints). The sprint feature was a war. It is very difficult to catch all of the action going on all over the track. For a weekly show, this is the best sprint car racing in Indiana right now.
I did get to see young Coleman Gulick do battle with the big boys and finish in fourth place. I enjoyed watching him pick them off one by one. He staged a great battle with Cottle over the last half of the race. This kid is a comer who isn't afraid to stand on the gas. Whitt is just amazing and he currently owns Kokomo. If I heard Rob Goodman correctly, he took the points lead last night. Had to feel sorry for Faas as he probably still can't believe he didn't win that one. Several other battles through out the field with the show being over at a decent hour even with the modified feature running first. What more can we say about poor Josh Spencer. If he didn't have bad luck, he wouldn't have any luck at all. He has been really up on the wheel ![]() ![]()

Another great night at Kokomo. Good run by Coleman almost missed the finish because I thought Faas was gone so I was wathing Coleman battle with Cottle. I caught the finish out of the corner of my eye luckily. As one guy that was here from South Dakota told I'm lucky to live just a couple blocks from the track he don't get to see much good racing like this back home. He added he was glad he left the brickyard early to catch Kokomo it was well worth it.
