In 30 years of going to the races, that was some of the most amazing racing I've ever seen. If Larson doesn't spin, don't know if he could have won, but it was shaping up for an instant classic

Buts thats racin in a nutshell,too bad they couldnt have had a better surface for the feature,and it isnt much fun to sit and watch a grader and water truck for an hour and a half,plus 4 days of racin, is it possible to get a multi groove track after all the nites of racin on it?

Agreed those eight laps or so swapping the lead in each corner had the makings for one of the best features there. Racing like that can make your whole trip worth it if you saw nothing else. After the spin though the wind was let out of the sails and the race wasn't much worth watching anymore.

Kyle is so good. Just priceless stuff. He reminds me of Steve in his prime. He just seems to grab the race car by the throat. Just when you think he couldn't possibly turn a more perfect lap, the next one is even better. If he wouldn't have been fettered by that Toyota, he would have just driven away. Notice how him and the Swindells were just gone.

Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Anyone there know if Kyle had any tire left or broke/bent something when he spun ? Saw him tag the wall a few times before the spin. I wasnt there but up to that point it was great racing.
