Qualifying was rained out thanks to the outer bands of Hurricane Ivan.
Elko and Milwaukee, the previous two races, had their qualifying
sessions rained out as well.

Brian Downey wound up in the hospital after his hard single-car crash.

To the rear - 4 - backup car

Attendance - 26,590

In the latest in a series of missteps, the ASA implemented wicker bills
for this race and slowed the cars down nearly 2 seconds per lap compared
to the first Kentucky race. This was yet another unpopular move with
drivers and it led to pack-style racing that was present at each of the
final 3 series races. Combine that with the restrictor plates and
drivers predicted the race would be a mess. At 2 and a half hours for
150 laps, you could say that it was.

Brent Downey, as I noted before, wound up hospitalized with a broken arm
and hyperextended neck tendons after he blew a tire and went head on
into the outside wall. Travis Kittleson spent some extended time in the
care center after having the wind knocked out of him in his crash.
Several drivers caught up in accidents blamed the new aero package for
incidents that otherwise could have been avoided.

Mike Garvey picks up his fourth win of the season. This was his 20th ASA
win but it would be his penultimate victory in the series...which isn't
as bad as it sounds since ASA only had two races left anyway.
