Jinxed Lifted....Illinois Driver Conquers the Big E
Will this be the year for a Land of Lincoln driver to win a big race at Eldora?. Hard to believe no Illinois driver has won a World 100 or the Dream ever. Yes, Shannon Babb won the World 100 in 2005 but came in light at the scales. Dennis Erb Jr. had good runs at the Dream placing 3rd in 2015...2nd in 2013 and a top 5 in 2012.
Little Bobby made his mark at the World as a runner up last year and a 4th in 2014.......Who will be the Illini driver to break the jinx and win a big one at Eldora? Thinking Brandon Sheppard or Bobby Pierce breaks this in creditable streak of no wins.
