MUNCIE DRAGWAY
On Friday , no-box racer Shane Daugherty took home top honors . Daugherty drove his Kokomo , Indiana-based Mopar to the win in no-box , then scored the victory in the main event over Joe Barney .
On Saturday , Brownsburg , Indiana ’ s Greg Dillman was unopposed in the final round , taking his
Chevy II to the winner ’ s circle . Dillman nearly doubled up and won Sunday ’ s final main event as well , but fell just short to Dustin Rose in the thrilling final round .
“ We were very pleased with the second running of this event , and we ’ ll sit down in the offseason and discuss what worked , what didn ’ t work , what mistakes can be corrected and how we can continue making this event better ,” says Daniels .
Muncie Dragway continues to introduce new events as well as holding their time-honored attractions .
“ It ’ s encouraging to see the crowds we ’ ve seen this year , especially for our Night of Fire event in July , when we had to close off one side of the track because we ran out of parking . It ’ s obvious that people want to get out and do stuff !” concludes Daniels . DI
