It was cool to see someone older that me win. Nice race Sammy! No mistakes.
The madman is bad fast!
J.Henderson has some good mojo (aka: horse power)
B.Brown welcome to Ohio (Those Garretts he got from J. Myers team are still good)
Pittman was was really good too this weekend. Did anyone else see see that save that D. Blaney made last night? (Too bad it ruined a good night. No X-Mas card to Kraig Kinser this year I think.)
Racin was not too good Friday, but it was great last night. That was one kick kings royal!
Another long year until the next K.R.
Out, Shoes

Just watched the video. Heckuva a race. Whoever says that Eldora doesn't have great racing is crazy. Back and forth, slidejobs galore. Charges from the back to the front. What more could you want in a sprint car race, except maybe a different winner. haha Looks like the madman was a tick faster at the end but made his move a lap too early while he wasn't quite in striking distance and lost too much distance to make up.

Exactly what I saw with the madman. He needed a little more patience to take that shot at least one lap later and he may have been able to make it stick. On a guy like Sammy you better not show him your nose until you can really pull the trigger on that pass. That got his elbows up for the last few laps!

I agree with the first post. Justin Henderson was real fast and had solid top 5's both nights, Pittman looked good last night, Dale Blaney was comin on real strong until the near miss with Kemenah on the restart, Brad Sweet was also coming through the pack before the left rear shreaded. Overall great weekend of racing, track held up pretty well, and cant wait to do it again next year!

The big FAT RR that Sammy fed to the 21 car in the heat race coming off the 4th turn was typical Sammy. As much as it pains me to say it... he was the class of the field last night. I think he was just riding when Madsen caught him with like 10 to go and stepped it up and did just enough to stay up front and win it.
I'm just glad I didn't drive 9 hours to see a rain out.

As fast as TK was in the heat and starting on the pole I figured he would run away with it. Not sure what happened but he was in about 5th place after the first lap. Brownie did get hosed in the heat race via Sammys right rear! If it were not for that I think Brownie had a good chance to hold the point for the entire 8 laps which would have put Sammy deep in field for the feature. Lotta "ifs" but overall hell of a good race. Kudos to Sammy he was Bad fast...
Lotta tires over the walls this weekend! luckily the wheel in turn 4 had no mojo on it when it went over, Just the tire only of a car landed about 20ft right in front of us in turn 1 (harmless), but that 360 over in turn 2, Wow! Glad that was coming out of turn 2 and not turn 4 because that thing had some serious momentum on it.
