I want to congratulate Rager for what I thought was an awesome effort in a loaded B Main last night against the best teams around. He ran down, passed, and drove away from some big names, multiple times, to earn a transfer spot only to be victim of a couple terrible cautions and some hard slide jobs on restarts.
My guess is that this young man's team is by far the lowest funded team in Volusia, but for those 12 laps he was the best driver and car on the track (IMO) I saw his frustration in the pits after the race. He is definetely a very young driver and he showed he's got the talent. Keep your head up, keep driving like that and you'll win a lot of races. Good luck at Knoxville.

That last caution was bogus. They were coming to the checkered off of four and they threw the caution for a car that slid off of the track? It looked to me like a classic case of DIRT trying to get one of their own in the race. It didn't work though, because Brian Paulus took it, and he's not one of their's.

Rager is good racer but I bet his little brother Trager will be the one will be watching in the next couple of years. He was real impressive in a 305 last year. One hell of a racing family.
