AWESOME SHOW!!!!!!! One of the best ive ever seen at Cleveland. the battle between Davenport and madden was epic. madden made the best save I ve ever seen on a race track, a complete 360 at full speed coming out of turn 2 and saved it and never lost a position. INCREDIBLE MOVE!!!

Track was a little rough but the racing was off the chain.

[Cash]

Counted I think 4 lead changes between davenport and madden....epic

Not a waste of money ....

I wouldn't say it a waste of money.

Sure the track was challenging, but there was a good grove at the top and the bottom as well. I haven't seen racing like that anywhere since Duayne Hommel ran at Cleveland many years ago. The track conditions were far from perfect but produced an awesome race.

As a Shane Clanton fan, I am sure you would have been disappointed that he didn't start the race. But I think if you asked any Davenport fan in the stands about wasting their money they would disagree.

Top 5 action was great all night. I would put this race in my top 10 of all time ....

It was such a good race, a fellow sitting by me from Alabama, said if they were
still taking up money at gate, he would give them a few more dollars because
it was worth it.

I love to travel all over the southeast for the big SLM shows, been doing it for lots of years now. Say what you will about the track being a little rough, no argument there, bringing the grader out was good call, would have been a train race around the top if he had not of done that. Some of the drivers might not have liked it, BUT... what a show for fans!!! Thank you Monty for not making me watch another train race! If you missed this one race fans, you missed a whale of a race, definitly in my top ten ever list. "Just a SLM fans opinion"
