Hard Luck Racers

Word quickly spread at the World Ford Challenge in St. Louis that SammyVincent's house burned down while at WFC8. His family was not injured,but the house was a loss. Mrs. Vincent had things under control and gaveorders for Sammy to keep racing and win the $15,000 top prize.

Followingthe event, we learned of Brit Floyd's trailer fire that cost him hisentire racing program-a bad break for the man who won this year's Racin'Jason Memorial Award and is a true ambassador for the Pro 5.0 class.
