I know the cockpit area is kinda dark, but is he not wearing gloves?

Watching incar camera clips shows its not as easy as it looks to drive a sprint car. Things happen fast. looked like he hit a couple of cars. Its good to go watch from differnt places and get a look form differnt and angels.

Nice vid of Standridge in what looks like his own #22 sprinter. Never been to Jacksonville, Ill. looks like it is a pretty small track. And yes it looks like he has no gloves on!

I'm setting myself up for some blasting here but in my eyes when i see in car clips i think it doesn't do the driver justice and to me it looks easier to drive than it is. I know things happen fast all around you but some of those clips seem like things are in slow motion.

petey....it's a banked 1/4, & a pretty fun place to see a race in my opinion. We took in an MSCS show early in the year up there, & it's definitely worth going back for!

A narrow little short 1/4 that is kind of hard to pass on . They used to water it with a honey wagon . Good idea to wear a bandanna . The Sandwich brothers are tough to beat there .
