This race was a turning point for the career of Tony Schumacher. After failing to qualify for this race and a first round loss at the next event in Topeka crew chief Dan Olsen was fired and replaced by Alan Johnson at Chicago. And the rest is history…
My buddy and I were in the left lane bleachers, Brandon hit the wall almost right in front of us. Watching Kenny running down track with Kim Richards was absolutely heart breaking! And then the eery silence as we all held our breath…….😢 I saw a lot over my many years of going to Old Bridge. 😞
Wow, it was gut wrenching just watching the telecast. Can't image what it was like live, much like the loss of Scott Kalitta. Just glad Brandon came back and had a successful career.
