Ryan was good in the Feature and terrible in his heat. He may have even led it at some point but faded to about 5th....

Would Bell have caught Schatz if he had 10 more laps?
Even though I may not know you, I
care what most of you think!

When you're able to do something that Steve Kinser, Sammy Swindell or Doug Wolfgang hasn't done, you've done something extremely special. Congrats to Donny on yet another historic achievement. The dude is amazing.

Would have been interesting. Donny looked like he was being incredibly patient at the end, likely knowing that he had a huge lead and didn't want to hurt the tires. He probably would have pushed harder the last 10 laps of he knew he had 10 more. He could have lapped a few more cars but kept backing off to be safe.

Like the guy that crowned him, he may have bouts of mediocracy in May and June, but come July and August .......

Yes I would say that was a great run by that team. Ryan had a couple of decent runs in that car during Speedweek as well. Maybe a full time ride in the 07.

I was there and didn't get a good look, but thought that was a premature caution in Donny's heat race, with 2 laps to go Lee Jacabs had a huge lead,although Shatz was so much faster it probably wouldn't have changed the outcome starting deeper in the field. Did anyone else have a better view or watched it on dirtvision?

Seems to be running better in that car than he has in the 59/94 this season but I think he wants to be out with the all-stars instead of running locally. Was actually surprised the 07 team went out to Eldora. I also don't think Coldren is going to get rid of Doug Esh. He's been pretty decent in the car too. Smith and the Coldren team definitely seem to have gelled quickly though.

Just a guess on my part, but I think Coldren likes running local and Smith seems to want to travel a bit more. Having said that, the 07 would probably be the best local ride Smith has had. But I agree I see Esh coming back to that ride.

The only downside to last night was the F.Q.I. (Fan Quality Index) dropped dramatically from Friday night. Entirely too many 40 year old adolescents, power drinkers, felons, and trustees of modern chemistry. Then there were the idiots standing at the start of the feature which I will never understand.
However I did enjoy the racingand the track was right as rain.

Unfortunately the Royal brings out some of the worst. I try to spend as much time in the pits as I can when I go to Eldora.

Nice Roadhouse reference. Tip of the cap to you.
