Anyone catch the cleveland race this weekend?

Espenlaub in the new 6 almost won, but kleinubing did a kamikaze into turn 1 on the last lap and took the win.

Altenburg finsihed fifth scoring pts for Tripoint, but Pobst had more badluck and had to work from the back, but still posting a new record lap.
 
Yea, I was there. It was a great race.

Randy Probst is the man! After a turn one incident he was black flagged to remove his dragging bumper. He came back out in last place on lap 3. Every lap he would come by and gain half a straightaway on the cars in front of him and would pass several people per lap. After working his way through half the field he was involved in another incident that caused him to lose a bunch of spots. He gathered it up and worked his way up to 10th at the finish. It was an amazing drive and he was obviously the fasted driver out there.
 
He's on a totally different level than everyone else, Altenberg in an identical car is competitive, but has trouble keeping up with cunningham and kleinubing. Hopefully Randy's used up all his badluck for the yr, because he really should be driving away with the championship by now.
