Sprints at Anderson

[Budman]

If you are not at the track today and you have direct tv, you might want to check out channel 214. Its a replay, but good racing nonetheless. I'm reminded of the THUNDER series of old which ran on ESPN and TNN back in the day. It starts a noon.

awesome race for sure, too bad Cottle blew up in the last few laps......looked like it was fixing to get interesting for the last five laps or so.....500 laps on that short track has to be awesome to run.

500 laps on that short track has to be awesome to run.

 

Fun to watch; I was at the Little 500 there in 1986; at that time, they pitted in the infield, with the "X" blocked off into two areas. You would either enter the pits in turn 2, and come back on turn 1, or go in at turn four and come back out at turn three. made for an interesting ballet of sprint cars and push trucks. But they ran the entire event, with a red flag and ambulance change, in about 2 1/2 hours.

For the

old timers here, that track could be a carbon copy of Pan American Toepperwein with the track configuration.

My uncle used to live across the street from the track and always had good tickets for us to watch the races there. he passed away in 91 and I have not been back. We saw a car jump the barricade and launch into the infield pits. Sent a few people to the hospital. Always liked Anderson.

Watched the first part of that race before my wife wanted to go kayak fishing. I had to go or be stupid. Thats some hard core short track racing. Real racing.

MAV TV shows the "Must See TV" Sprint and Super Modified series' which I believe is what Abel was trying to get at CC Speedway.....Plus Indiana Sprint Cars on Thursday
