Im a little bit wrong, Colemans been running a lot of everything for the past couple years. I first seen him in a Sprint at the ripe old age of 12 in the 2006 MSCS 10k race at LBurg. In which I was sitting near family and friends of his who pointed him out. He held his own till he slid off two avoiding another car that got crossed up.
Chuck, saying maybe its not the fastest rise ever but still impressive! Just complimenting them, That is all.

Bacon won three of the 4 races in last years TnT tour. Ballou took the big money on the last night though for the second straight year.
Coleman showed last year that he can run a non-wing car and ran pretty well at local shows, but was running mid/back of the pack when the big dogs came to town. This year when they show up he seems to arise to the occasion and the results are definitely showing it! One of the rare cases these days where it seems like the money being spent on equipment is being utilized by talent.
I remember the first night Cole Whitt came to L-Burg. They rolled in with their big truck and double stacker trailer and Cole proceeded to dump it in hot laps junking the car. I couldn't help but think that here was another case of where money didn't buy talent but dang look at him now. I've always been a die hard fan of Dave Darland, Kevin Thomas (the original bottom feeder), and Kevin Briscoe due to their smooth but aggressive driving styles. Cole has added his name to that list.
