Jon and Brian have had a really tough ISW to say the least and both are running strong seconds to Levi.
Brian with flat a LB while leading, Engine prob at TH, and the flip last night at HB
Jon
GC, run Bmain, start 10 finish 2
LB, Hit rut on start, tail to finish 8
KO, Leading with 9 to go, Flat tire
TH, run Bmain, start 8 finish 2
BL, Wrecked on start, tail to 7
HB, Start up front win

Love to see one of them win ISW

That's how they qualify and get scored by races

Thanks 19, I knew of the transponder system, just didn't know if they actually used it last night.

You're exactly right. No other driver in the world could be in 2nd place in ISW points with the bad luck Jon has had. Kokomo and Bloomington hurt him. He would be dominating if he wouldn't have had a flat at KS and got caught up in some 1st lap junk at Btown. Go Jon!!! He has worked his butt off!!!!

Speaking of Jon Stanbrough, I've enjoyed watching him race for quite a while. Other than the 53 car, I remember him driving a two tone red and white car number 57. Seems I remember a big win at Terre Haute in that 57 car for Jon. Is that 57 team still together?

I believe the 57 you are referring to is still together. I believe it is the Hazen 57. Jon Sciscoe is the driver.

The Hazen 57. Yeah, Jon Sciscoe has been driving it this year. Made the Sprintweek feature on Friday night in the car, coming home 17th. The car looks essentially the same as it did back when Stanbrough was driving it.

Must have missed Gas City?

TSS track prep is pretty darn good, the tractor show runs long but is usually worth the wait.
