Sprague is an asshole, good to see he is washed up now too. 2. Darrell posted: 10.22.2006 - 5:52 pm Rate this comment: (0) (0) Get a sense of humor Sprague. Although he isn't washed up, he wasn't exactly a nice guy either. 3. Steve posted: 11.04.2006 - 3:42 am Rate this comment: (0) (0) There you go with that a-hole talk again. 4.

Before getting back inside, he sat down on pit wall to eat some chips and drink a soda" 9.

The biggest incident of the day came early when Ricky Hendrick spun off turn 4 while running top 5. He would do a 360 and continue on but his smoke screen made it impossible to see and Chris Horn and Nathan Haseleu had pretty significant damage in its wake. The most significant incident of the day happened during a round of pitstops when leader Ted Musgrave was trying to pass a very resiliant rookie Matt Crafton, who got loose under Musgrave and spun into him, crashing both. Musgrave understood it was not intentional but he was really bummed as this was his favorite truck and had pretty much dominated this race and every race he was in with it and it suffered major rear damage. The last 10 laps were also surprising. Riggs had the lead but Sprague caught him and passed him with 10 laps to go and appeared he would go on to dominate and claim the victory from there but just 1 lap latter the engine sputtered and smoke showed. It appeared hed need to retire but it may have been a failed cylinder. He lost the lead quickly but was able to limp to a 3rd place finish. 13.
