Went to New Egypt as a fan in the stands. Modifieds, Sportsman, NEWS, Street Stocks, and, 4 cylinders. Admission $23.00 Likes - 33 Crates on hand, requiring a consolation race with 11 cars, the other 3 did not start. They had the Street Stock feature then a 30-minute intermission, followed by the NEWS, Modifieds, Crates, and 4 cylinders. Dominic Buffalino ran fast all night and won his heat race then in the feature he had to pass a few cars. While trying to pass Wade Hendrickson, he had to hold off Ryan Godown. When he got to 2nd place he had to pass Jim Housworth. A yellow restart Dominic grabbed the lead the rest was history. I mentioned below in a post the tribute was great to see. Mike Thompson had to fight off a late-race challenge to edge out Hedi Heddin. I left with about 2 laps left in the Crate Feature as Ryan Simmons was checking out from the pack. Notes - There was a small field of News 6 cars with one not starting in the heat race and the race finished with only 4 News at the end. There was a 360 sprint taking practice in both races. Only 12 cars in the 4-cylinder class. Going back in a month? - Yes. I watched the first and final round of the NHRA, not to spoil the results, but it was nice to see them get well wishes and wins dedicated to John Force. Nascar I tried to tune in but the rain and then the channel changed later I think I watched about 6 - 10 laps total. While flipping to other programs.
