I don't think I have seen one downtube torn off and the other bent in half and broken off before. Conner Morrell went for a ride but that frame damage was something.

Once down tubes were gone, the frame bathtubed bent in half forward of the driers compartment. Glad they both walked away.

Guess again....
Excellent race!
Glorified Allstars? Big car count, Posse winner, strong field, Larson, Kofoid, Marks...
Glorified indeed! Whats not to like?

I skipped the heats tonite to watch hoops, so I don't know if they were good, but feature kicked ass!

Too bad Larson didn't win this one...that "Yeley fan" from the other post mighta thought Kyle was somebody!

On a serious note, amazing Larson was out racing already after that hard hit he got in Sunday's Cup race (I didn't watch much of it...was at my local short track, starting its final scheduled year of action). Interesting, Kyle's Cup car and tonight's mentioned wreck, had bars breaking off the cars...that DOES dissipate energy (taking it from the driver absorbing it); just a different look than when Indycars and f1 cars do it...most likely not idea, but in both of these cases, the drivers walked away...

I thought the feature was good, But two or three of the double file restarts triggered more wrecks, too many wrecks in fact. How many USAC features we see go green to checker? A bunch.

I was at Burlington last night. Good show overall. Track had enough character to make wing cars exciting to me. Features were real good. The heats, only the first lap but you don’t want to miss the starts, that’s when the action happens like that big one in turn one. If I were them I’d not have a support class at these shows and better promote the 410’s instead.

Another quality program for the High Limit Series....Zeb Wise has turned around his program in the 26....The longest 15min I have ever endured in a 305 show....on to Kokomo
