Whizzer
Gig'em
For all you dirt fans who watched the race on the telly, take note of the people sitting and standing in front of those huge billboards between turns one and two. I'm the guy dressed in the dark green parka, long johns, Carhart insulated cap, and hood up (look a little like the sketch of the uni-bomber
) wearing goggles and sitting in a green fold up sport chair. If the hood wasn't up and buttoned across the front it might be easier to recognize me because of the beard .
I was with Daryn Pittman and the Heffner Racing #27! During a break in the action, I met a guy with the Jac Haudenschild driven car, and he told me about his friend. Seems Friday night, the guy was standing in the area described, standing under the bill boards. A clump of dirt came through the safety fence and hit him in the mouth knocking out his two front teeth! Another chap was standing there listening to the story and it turns out, he was the one that lost his teeth! He reiterated the story and his reaction was, "I'm just glad it wasn't my eye."
The racing was great. I left as soon as the sprint car feature ended and luckily, had no problem leaving the track. Guess everybody was staying for the late model feature. By ten-thirty I was in my hotel room, watching the time delay on Speed as there was about a thirty minute time delay from the actual race and broadcast.
Good night of racing and a real great finale to the end of a successful year although the night wasn't what Heffner Racing and Daryn Pittman hoped for.
