Tony Epperson, Jerry Gordon and Sam was wore out after that one. We ran that race a few times and never planned on changing tires unless we had a flat so start money definitely covered our tire bill. We were not a top 5 car but we did have some speed. I don’t remember very many guys changing tires in the early 2000’s. If I could run one more race it would be that one.
GREAT story!!! Can I ask your name and any other race stats? (just wondering)

JDull that would be Bobby Smith ran tqs, midgets and sprints. I saw him win in the HSCA 360 deal on the dirt. Good guy and pretty good racer.
