+O.K., most of the recent retro results threads have likely been of most interest to the "old geezers" such as DannyBurton, SprintManDave, Pat O'Connor Fan, et al. Here's one not quite 20 years old for the "younger geezers", i.e. MudPacker, Dirtfan, and, of course, myself.
![]() Time Trials - 26 Cars 13 Jack Straman..................14.162 12 Doug Kalitta....................13.143 17 Tony Elliott......................13.269 29 Greg Reed......................13.388 57 Brad Marvel....................13.283 77 Dave Peperak..................13.755 49 Troy Link........................13.155 95 Tray House.....................12.837 36 Dave Darland..................12.996 -7 Denny Martini..................13.248 36 Joe Roush.......................13.249 81 Jon Stanbrough.................DNQ -2 Eric Gordon.....................13.628 33 Denny Stewart................13.696 77 Greg Staab.....................12.701 Quick Time 79 Gary Fisher.....................13.046 -7 Kenny Rice......................13.511 44 Roy Caruthers.................14.062 66 Terry Shepherd...............13.326 26 Jack Hewitt.....................13.049 -5 Cary Faas........................13.272 -6 Bill Rose..........................13.468 -3 Gary Cameron..................13.544 41 Phil Hedges.....................13.351 69 Robbie Stanley................12.927 25 Alan Barr........................13.461 12 Scott Kropfield...................DNQ First Heat 13 Jack Straman.....................8 33 Denny Stewart...................4 -7 Kenny Rice.........................6 29 Greg Reed.........................7 57 Brad Marvel.......................2 36 Joe Roush.........................9 12 Doug Kalitta......................3 36 Dave Darland.....................1 77 Greg Staab........................5 Second Heat 77 Dave Peperak.....................6 -3 Gary Cameron....................2 25 Alan Barr...........................5 49 Troy Link...........................8 17 Tony Elliott........................1 95 Tray House........................3 79 Gary Fisher........................4 12 Scott Kropfield...................7 Third Heat 44 Roy Caruthers...................7 -2 Eric Gordon.......................2 -6 Bill Rose...........................4 41 Phil Hedges......................6 -5 Cary Faas.........................5 -7 Denny Martini....................8 26 Jack Hewitt.......................1 69 Robbie Stanley..................3 +I had apparently become rather lazy by '93 as I didn't list the number of laps (I assume 8) or time of race. I did jot a comment in my notes that "collectively, these were three of the best heat races I've seen in some time". Semi-Feature 77 Greg Staab.......................2 49 Troy Link..........................1 -7 Denny Martini....................7 36 Joe Roush.........................5 -5 Cary Faas..........................4 66 Terry Shepherd................DNS 41 Phil Hedges.......................6 29 Greg Reed........................8 25 Alan Barr..........................3 -7 Kenny Rice.......................13 Flipped 77 Dave Peperak....................9 44 Roy Caruthers..................10 13 Jack Straman...................11 12 Scott Kropfield.................12 Feature 26 Jack Hewitt...............The Winner 79 Gary Fisher.......................7 36 Dave Darland...................20 Blew Up While Leading 69 Robbie Stanley..................2 95 Tray House.......................3 77 Greg Staab.......................6 12 Doug Kalitta.....................8 49 Troy Link.........................16 -7 Denny Martini...................15 36 Joe Roush........................12 17 Tony Elliott.......................4 -5 Cary Faas.........................11 57 Brad Marvel.......................9 41 Phil Hedges......................17 29 Greg Reed........................13 25 Alan Barr.........................10 -6 Bill Rose............................5 -3 Gary Cameron...................18 -2 Eric Gordon.......................14 33 Denny Stewart..................19 +This was a good night at the races for my boy, Greg Staab, which is one of the reasons I chose to bring back this one back, what with his recent most deserving induction into the HARF Hall of Fame. ![]() +I was in attendance at IRP when Greg won a USAC sprint feature.....quite emotional in the circle. I failed to keep records though. Believe it was also shown live on ESPN, Thurs. Nite Thunder maybe? +Hard Charger Award to Bill Rose. 17th to 5th......not too shabby. ![]() +There was a Jim Kropfield who drove unlimited hydroplanes. I know he won the Governor's Cup driving Miss Budweiser at Madison one season. Also broke his neck once, I believe. Don't know if he was related to Scott Kropfield, the sprint car guy or not. cecil98? smith19? anyone? Thassit!!! ![]() |

There's the show you were talking about at IRP. Staab wins and Vogler keeps the hood on the car with his hand! |

By this time Marv, I had been in Indiana for 19 years so I probably was on the pine at THAT. I always enjoy some of the older ones but at this time of year will take anything I can get. Thanks for putting me in the "younger geezer" catagory along with Dirtfan and you. Makes me feel very youthful.

I missed this and many races for a while as I was hitting the books.
I did see Joe Roush racing a TQ in 2009 at a MTQRL show at the Ripley County Fairgrounds in Osgood, IN. |
