Seavy was the only one doing alot of passing. Most rode the bottom while DD ran the top. Bottom went away and by the time Windom and Stockon realized it the race was already over.

Jordan Kinser used home track advantage to finish 13th.
Stevie Sussex’s night went sour after qualifying 8th in Burton 04 he took 5th in heat race, 6th in B-Main and raced backwards from 9th to 21st.
On the opposite side of the Ledger Logan Seavey in the Briscoe 5B qualified 16th and took 6th in heat race improved to 4th in B-Main and went from 15th to 3rd in feature picking up the Hard Charger award.
Record 60th USAC national sprint car win for Dave Darland. He was the only driver that stayed up on top the whole race. Nearly everyone else ran down low. Dave pounded the cushion hard the whole race, even after he was passed down low and it looked like top was going away he stuck with it and worked it harder. Once he got into lapped traffic it was over. The lapped cars were blocking Windom down low and the top had clear sailing.
Had to travel a one lane, gravel/dirt road, and drive thru a creek, to get there, (thanks to construction on 46, and google maps) but what a great nite of racing. DD drove a masterful race, hanging on the rim by a thread, and the rest of the field put on an exciting show, especially Logan in the 5b. Race savers have come a long way, would like to see other tracks adopt them, as companion class. Have noticed that car counts are great so far this year, and there are some really good young guns coming on. Now, Haubstat, or LBurg?
