It was won by Jay Drake in the Kunz mobile and had a terrible wreck to start the feature on the front stretch. Still one of my the favorite memories from that weekend was Ratboy destroying a lawn chair and eventually throwing it on top of the pavilion roof. Good times with a lot of great people!
RIP Ratboy

I believe Strawberry Hill soured many, many people from ever being able to enjoy wine of any kind for the rest of their lives! Especially young ladies of that era.

Silver Crown Championship Dirt Cars properly driven on a one mile dirt track are classic poetry in motion. Using that analogy, Jack Hewitt is one of the greatest poets of all time.

the story is classic enough....I use that line so often that people who are in my life now know the story of how that phrase came to be. I use it all the time while teaching driving at the academy too....the recruits just look at me like im crazy....
