On the outside of Row 9...The late GREAT Jimmy Shampine!!!!!...One of the greatest automotive innovators EVER!!! I remember when Supermodifieds were part of this race...
1 of my early super sportsman heroes made this race, Scott Ausherman. Sadly we lost Scott a few years ago. He was a good fabricator and innovater in his prime
I remember Danny Smith used to come to Australia and race at Premier Speedway in Warrnambool, home of the Grand Annual Sprintcar Classic. He always had great battles with Garry Rush, Max Dumsney and Brett Lacey.
The size of that starting field. Over 70 cars attempted to qualify. Compare that to today where most of the time you can make the main event just by showing up. That flag stand is the tallest one I've ever seen.

'Man, a field of 41 sprint cars... MADNESS!!!
I was there!
So many great PA Posse boys made the show for this race!!! The true golden age of sprint car racing in the northeast.
Things are pretty good now too. Brent marks won the kings royal this year, Macri and Dewease won WoO features as well
That's a young sounding Mike Joy...on ESPN!
Jimmy Horton still racing Modifieds in 2021.
I wish they would run on a full 1 mile track again. Eh, but to hear the names of men who I have been following for decades, it's fine.

Wazzer comment. You have no idea of what it takes and costs to run a 410 Sprint Car today.

Can you say snooze fest? These things need to be on a smaller track
Sorry you wrongly feel that way. If you were there in person you wouldn't be such a wazzer.
@@pressureworks where’s this wazzer word come from, are you Australian?
@@maximumhardcore4362 An Aussie ??? Ooooh noooooo. A Wazzer may be defined as a distinct lack of horsepower.
