Best come from behind wins on dirt

[GrocMax]

Mine- #1- Doug Wolfgang, AFTER he got hurt he raced IMCA Sprints a couple years, the old long gone North Tx Motor Speedway (1/4 mile, flat, dry, Royce City Tx area). Won after being THREE LAPS DOWN. A Sprint car race. Unbelievable. #2- Schatz winning Knoxville Nationals from the B. He 'out Wolfganged' Wolfie. #3- Bloomquist. Eldora. You know which one. Almost forgot- Rico- flip, pits, win. In like 18 laps. Honorable mention- Wolfie, Knoxville, you know which one, finished 4th or 5th? Add yours.

I was more interested in wins, but the almosties are often more entertaining to watch, and tend to stick longer in the brain. Wolfie at Royce City was just unbelievable. 3 laps down. 3 friggin laps down. IMCA during the WoO lawsuit years after the wreck at Lakeside, during a period where he was recovering from that nasty wreck with a broken neck and burned to a crisp, and still needed to make a living any way he could.

Bloomquist winning the world in 2014 with spaceship shocks. Wendell Wallace coming from the tail and winning the dtwc at WVMS in 2000.

The most recent one I saw in person was, two or three years ago at Golden Isles, with pretty much every big name driver in the sport there -- Josh Richards started dead last (27th I think), and had the lead within 20 laps, and went on to win. That was mighty impressive.

not a fan but ill give it to him, 2014 world 100 Bloomquist, put to the tail not only won but almost lapped the entire field..

Another one would be Randle Chupp at GIS. Started in the back and beat I believe EPJ and Scott.

Man I miss watching him.

I was at Eastbay a couple years ago when Sheppard wrecked the 1 car in a heat race and started at the back of a B-main and won it then started in the back of the feature and had the lead around lap 20 and won that race. It was impressive to see team 1 thrash on the car to get it ready as fast as they did to make the B-main, because anyone that has been to Eastbay knows how fast that show moves.

By Tom Lathen and Phil Roberts
WORLD Dirt Racing League Corning, Iowa (Aug. 17, 2004)
