OK, the season isn't quite over, but its close...
What were your favorite races of 2015? I'm talking personal favorites, no need to squabble about which was "best"
My faves were watching Danny Dietrich beat Schatz at mid-summer "Nationals" at the Grove, followed by Stevie Smith doing the same next nite (didn't pass Donny, tho)
And watching Rico sweep both (Non rain) USAC midget races at Path Valley & Lincoln.... good racing! I hope this tour continues, I'll be there if it does....
Oval Nationals non wing races at Perris will finish out the year for me, new experience, we shall see....

The 360 A Main August 1st at Knoxville. Lead changes, wheel banging, and slide jobs throughout and a drag race to the finish for a Calvin Landis win.

Yea, missed Larson winning, went 2nd weekend, wish I had seen that.
Also regret missing Ironman & POWRI. I was looking forward to that one on the way to Knoxville, but decided to stay an extra couple of weeks with 93 yr.old Mom. Glad I did that, don't mind missing another Schatzathon in Iowa, but that show sounded really good... oh well
I'm really starting to like midgets....

NSL at St. Francois County Raceway, Farmington, MO. Track was bad fast all night. The Dude broke the track record along with three other drivers. The "locals" showed that they could run with the Big Boys. Great night of racing for 41 410 sprintcars.

+1
That was probably my favorite of the year as well. Close race the entire time up front. Landis led to start, fell to 5th or so, and made a late push with a little luck of a blown tire to get the win.

Eldora Sprintacular......124 sprint cars across 3 divisions. So many sprint cars, they were pitting them up behind the turn three grandstands.
I love this race!

I've always been curious about the Super Mods, spend the summers in Connecticut, but have a hard time getting into pavement racing. Was the Waterford race competitive?
