Looks like Dave Steele is the Golden State Warriors of Florida Sprint Car racing LOL… Why time trials?.. I, as a fan, would prefer the heats like TBARA used to do… Their system of setting the feature race line-up was second to none…
Very disappointed that Boneman did not qualify in the top five despite using nitrous oxide and special “gumball” tires imported from The Isles of Langerhan…
Next Saturday’s Southern Sprintcar Shootout series race, a non-wing race, at Showtime Speedway, is the one that I will say carries the greatest importance, as it’s a sort of “Little 500 Preview.”
You’ll remember in last year’s race, it was looking like there was a very good possibility of having Floridians finish one-two. Mickey Kempgens had a long stint in the lead late in the race, and Dave Steele had his usual carve through the field to almost win it. Don’t be surprised if the winner of next Saturday night’s race is also the winner of the Little 500 next month, maybe even Mickey or Dave.
The northerners have their “Little 500 Preview” race today at Anderson Speedway, the 100-lap Glen Niebel Classic. We’ll know a lot more about the favorites for the 2016 Little 500 after these 2 races are over.
