They had Crates, crate sportsman, limited sportsman and 4 cyl. Had a lil rain in the middle of time trials but didnt take too long to start back up. Ran a shortened limited feature then pushed the Lucas heats,b and a main up trying to beat the rain. Started pouring as crate sportsmans took the green

Yeah I hope to see him pull off some big 1s here soon. Every time ive seen him run hes always strong no matter where but had alot of bad luck. Like the 2 world finals races last year, 1st night broke on lap 1, 2nd broke after taking 3rd or 2nd (cant remember) from Madden and Lanigan then broke the next lap

It moved around. Crystal, Hartford, Butler and I96. Kalamazoo speedway was the asphalt one it originally started. Then I think Crystal was the first one to have it on dirt.
