Congrats to the Big Game Racing Teams on a very impressive performance on the opening night at Volusia. Both cars had to come from a ways back to finish 1st & 2nd.

That was a stout field, as per usual in Florida.

congrats To Dollansky. I hope this is a sign of things to come since Dj is back. and congrats to young Gravel on his 3rd place finish with Rob Hart's help.

"Hitman" Hart can and usually does get the job done on his end of things; young Gravel will be the benificiary of Rob Hart's expertise in setting up the car, and also getting into Gravel's head as a former driver who can relay his years and laps of experience into language that will no doubt translate to a faster and better racer!!! Do not know if anyone else has noticed, but Gravel is quietly becoming a contender for top five finishes, and overall is becoming more consistent with Hart spinning the wrenches?

No win from the front row in this one...how I wish I was in FL!

Oh i noticed. I kept watching him last year to pass the w20 in points. He picked up Rob Hart and really made a charge at it and picked up ROTY at Nationals along the way.

I saw Gravel for the first time last year at the King's Royal, and have been keeping tabs on him ever since, the kid can really wheel a sprint car. Keep it up and congrats.

Wow no TSR or KKr cars even in the Top 10...good for the little teams!! Good to see Gravel have a good run. Im telling you this kid is going to be a great driver!!

Just a wild guess .... TSR and KKR teams might have been doing a little 'R&D' on the All Star's 'time' .... I suspicion come the first night of the WoO at Volusia ... you will see many of the team cars in 'question' in the top 5.
