With all the talk about Jimmy Blewitts' win and Jrs' adventures, it seems no one took notice of Johnny Bushs' fine run. He battled hard for a 13th place finish and was knocking on the door for a top ten. You could have thrown a blanket over 7th thru 15th. But his strong run to qualify in the consi was the talk of the pit area. Nice job Johnny!

Saturday, 1:57pm ET - The Consi races are on the track. Here's the scoop. Two Consis - three cars transfer from each.
Saturday, 2:10pm ET - Billy Pauch, Jr leads Ted Christopher. Right now Brian Pack holds on to the final transfer spot.
Ted Christopher leads the race over Billy Pauch, Jr. Johnny Bush has hopped into the transfer spot with the packed house at Concord on their feet watching his charge.
Saturday, 2:15pm ET - John Manno spins in turn two. The leaders had to pass the car as it sat in the middle of the track. The yellow flag was never thrown. The leaders slowed in turn three because they assumed the yellow was out. This caused a log-jam that nearly resulted in a multi-car chain reaction crash.
Saturday, 2:20pm ET - Ted Christopher makes his way into the field by winning the first of two consi races. Billy Pauch, Jr and "underdog" Long Island racer Johnny Bush take the other transfer spots. Frank Fleming nearly wrecked with two to go after contact from the bumper of JR Bertuccio.
