    That right there shows you why I still like the fast car starting at the tail of the field.

The skill set you halft to have to make these cars dig into the track and go. Also the variables that go into decision making, its so much going on in your head and to keep this all in working order is monumentle. Im so happy for him to see years of trial and error come together. Hard work is very rewording. There is always a winner in the race, just wish people would know how much it takes to get there and its all for our entertainment.

He won the feature that night and there was people booing the guy. I guess at the time the Show Me state had a thing against winners.
