Congrats Bob on your big win!! Couldnt have happen to a nicer guy!! Well deserved!! Nice to see you back and flying around Ppms!! I guess we'll see you back soon??!!
Tough luck goes to Pat Weldon. He had the field covered, but got a flat tire on lap 14:(... He said that was the first flat he's had in over 4-5 years. That's racing though.
Jake Simmons was fast too in second place, but he had problems too. Not sure what happened??
Big wreck on the last lap sucked really bad, it destroyed a lot of good cars. Not sure what happened there either, but we could of done without that big mess. Hate to see cars go home torn up like that.
Congrats again Bob!! We were soo happy for you!!

I just wanted to thank everyone for their support of this race. I couldn't be happier with how it ended up- 27 cars, great racing, and met a lot of great people. I would have loved to see it go green with Bob and Wayne side by side going into 3 on that last lap but that 25 spun and lead to more cautions. Also hated to see the wreck after that but glad everyone was okay.
Was talking to Bob before the races and he told me it wasn't about the money, he (and his gang of cars) were there to support my Dad and the racing family in general. Couldn't have said it any better.
It was awesome to see that many cars on the track again. The open pole position on the pace lap was very touching to my family. There wasn't a dry eye in our section.
Hopefully everyone had fun and would come back for the next one!

Oh before I forget- hard charger was Bill Slade. Hard luck was Pat Weldon. Lap money was 14 laps Pat 4 laps Bob. Highest finisher on Hoosiers was Carbo, and he also took home the Route 6 Racing package. Jake was 7th and got the second trophy and second case of oil. Area Auto Racing News subscriptions went to the 3rd and 4th place cars.
Bob, we also have a set of Mechanix gloves for your crew chief as winner of the race at Kurt's trailer.

I am wondering if PMS addded any of the increased pit fee to your race?
It seems like every week the pit fee is different, and since the only plausible reason was your race for your Dad, I was hoping the increase in the pit fee was for your event!?
Also hats off to the track crew, they really got the red flag incident cleaned up and off the track in no time. Good Job guys!

The extra 5 dollars was to make the sportsman a sportsman showdown payout to help vinces cause out which worked great

This was answered previously. Last night was NAPA Night, but Matt and The Miley's STILL made it a Premium Race, increasing the standard payout to a special format of $700 to win, allowing the purse raised by Vince to be applied heavy to the rear and preliminaries.I am wondering if PMS addded any of the increased pit fee to your race?

Correct. The $5 extra made it a base purse of $700 and $100 to start. I then added about $2700 to this base payout then another $1000 in contingencies. heats, dash and lap bonuses.

I think the Red Miley Rumble was a pretty good cause too, it if wasn't for him you may not have a place to race so close to home on Saturday night. Besides, if you thought the racing last weekend wasn't worth the price of admission, you need to take up another hobby.
