    a25rjr, I can't disagree. It was a tough choice and I almost sited this year's Lucas Macon race as the best dirt late model race I've ever seen instead of the La Salle race. It was a dandy!!

          glad to see someone else can appreciate the lower classes as well as he upper classes

                  the 1995 Butterball Memorial at Richmond ,Johnny Wheeler and Brian Asbury raced side by side for im not for sure how many laps but at least 15 to 20 laps with Terry English trying to get by them and Mike Jewell coming from the tail to catch them with a couple laps to go. Wheeler won by a nose and Jewell and English were side by side at finish.

                        My first race ever... Hales Corners Speedway 1970. Slowest qualifier (gimme a break I was driving a '59 Chrysler!)... Started on the pole in a six lap heat and beat a much faster '64 Chevelle by 1/2 car length. Same night I led 5 3/4 laps of another heat only to get beat at the line by a '60 Dodge!..

                          2011 Black diamond 125 preliminary feature #1 for $10k Pat Doar , Davey Johnson and Mike Marlar 2 and 3 wide for lead all race long and Pat Doar won it was awesome plus it was cool for me growing up watching Doar at cedar lake and driving 16hours to see him win a huge race like that was pretty cool

                            1 that will always stand out is that when Mark Richards was supposed to be building and selling the then dominate Bullitt Chassis for Ray Callahan on the East Coast but instead he modified Rays jig to his own idea and had Davey { The Juice } Johnson who was supposed to be the Bullitt house driver run Marks design on opening night at Don Martins Lernerville Speedway around 1992. The Juice lapped the entire field in the black Angeliccio and Henry 1J . Oh by the way , that was in the HEAT race !!!

                                He won of course but Chub Frank, Dave Hoffman, and Lynn Giesler kept him from totally stinking up the 25 lap feature . If it would have gone green the whole way the result most likely would have been the same. The car was running the bottom so smooth as if it was it on rails compared to the others as Kid Rockets car seems to be running in these more modern times.
