Thanks for watching,

That was an awesome midget race. Bryan once again proves his ability and Thomas sure did drive the wheels off of his car too.

Great race, Great video and Thank you for sharing it with us.

Brilliant videography, Ross. Spot on track prep left enough on the bottom or
guys stuck with a huggy-pole set up and a cushion for the rim riders and sliders.
The slider clinic presented by Clauson and T-Mez was worth twice the admission
price. If you were not there, you have my deepest condolences.

A big thumbs up to PowerI, all the drivers, their crews and the track prep gang that worked Tuesday through Saturday.

That was a great race and a great video! I would have fallen over dizzy if I tried that!

You should post a link to that over on the SCRAFAN board.

Good lord what a race....anybody that stayed home expecting a huggy pole bottom feeder parade must be kicking themselves now.


Great job by the PowrI crew on making such a racy track this year.

I have been saying it for a long time AJ Felker builds one "Hell" of a race car. The harder you push them the better they work and that is the honest to god's truth. The problem is drivers used to driving most other cars don't push them hard enough to make them work. I have watched it time and time again most drivers just don't think they can push a car that hard. I've watched my son driving one of AJ's mini sprints close on a car so fast getting into a turn that he catches the other driver compleatly off guard.

This young man flat put the car through the test, they just love to be driven hard and then a little harder yet. All AJ needs is the right driver and the right money man to come together, then midget racing had better watch out because I guarantee they will be on a roll.

I think Brad Kuhn finished 5th in one of AJ 's car's also. That goes to show you it can be done on a budget if you put forth enough effort and can do all the work in house. AJ is a special guy, and I have also known that for years!

I think he was using hellium in the front tires.

I was glad to see all 3 of Felker's cars in the feature.
