Man oh Man... What a show it was !!! My boy kept asking who it was and it brought back memories of him doing it back in the Godfrey Speeway days. It was a great show too see him and Mclintock go door to door and bumper to bumper the whole race and do it clean !!! Shows what two veteran's they are. Great job to both! Dan congratulate on you win and hope to see the same kind of show next year.
 
that was an awesome race, great job to Dan, he earned it, my dad lost power steering on last caution, so might or might not of changed out come, thank you tri-city for putting this on. cant wait for next year.

p.s. dirtboy I think you owe me a dollar
 
Great to hear he won. That is an old car too!! Good job on everyone whop ran. I heard it truly was the best of the best and was alot of racing all around.
 
lol yes sir buddy I owe you a dollar...I'll be there tonight if your there look for me. Yes it was a Hell of a show. Dapper Danny Ems was coming on fast after he got around them junk cars. Would have like to see one more caution there at the end to let em duke it out lol. Would also like to see this show ran again with acouple other big shows that night cause it was a awesome night at the track.
 
ill be back with the vintage cars, but im not really worried about the $1, and I dont have a clue what you look like any way. I agree run big shows together, that was an awesome night of racing. Does any one know what happen to the 66 car of Griffaw.
 
The 66 car was a let down last night cause Jason coulda did the same thing rusty was gonna do and that was win...I think it might have been a electrical problem.

If you see a big ox slurping bud light's at the turn 1 fence It's probably our boy dirtboy. Would have to agree with everyone, it was a great night of racing!!!
 
Rotor in distributor broke , on 66 that stock junk cost us three grand oh well there's next year! Good job Dan!
 
Congrats to Rexing and Dan!!!!!! You guys had a great year finished with a great win. Bobby was sooo dissappointed that our rear end mount broke while leading the heat, it would have been a good finish and been there with ya in the feature for sure..Fast cars all night and by far the best racing all year...
 
hes been fast all year and a great driver, seems pretty nice too, glad to see an actual street stock driver win it rather than a higher class guy stepping down and trying to take it away from the guys who deserved this race. think it would be awesome to see one in spring in one in fall. im sure the car count would be good enough to make that happen JMO

That car in the picture was built by Tom and Ron Krankel...I believe the car he one the $3000 with was also a Krankel car. I might be wrong but know they did have a Krankel car that Ol man rexing bought..
 
True grit racer. He was the man at Godfrey for years. Not 1 person ive talked to has said a bad thing about his win and all are really happy he won as he deserved it. Been working his tail off on the car all year to get it to where it is now
 
Dan is one of the nicest guys around...glad ol man rexing got him somebody that can drive. After a long winter this year them boys at Tri city gonna have them a tuff front runner to deal with !!! Be nice to see it role out on the track with the familiar #28
