    That right there shows you why I still like the fast car starting at the tail of the field. I always took more pride starting at the rear working my way all the way up to the front compared to starting up front and being a fast qualifier and know that you should be running up front no matter what when you already started up there

      Ive been on the side of putting cars together, what great respect i have for scott. You never know when your going to get paid by winning a race. 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.
