WAR Sprints at Humboldt Ks 4-25-2014

Decisions, decisions. I had to make the choice between the World of Outlaws at the Salina Highbanks or the wingless WAR Sprints at Humboldt. Although Salina is closer, more familiar, I had shot the Outlaws the week before at Devil's Bowl and I had never shot (or seen) the WAR group. I'm becoming a big fan of non wing sprint cars so up 169 north I went. They had a small field of cars but put on some pretty decent racing. And I heard Salina was dusty and abrasive on tires and they cut the feature short, so maybe I made the right decision.



BTW, Chris Parkinson won the race. I thought I recognized the last name as being an old midwest racing name. I posted on FB and Shane Carson posted this picture of his grand father.

I just happened upon your pic of Chris Parkinson and his grandfather, "Pops" Parkinson. Great shot of Chris. You should check out WAR again this year. It is now under POWRi Lucas Oil WAR Sprints. It is growing every year. Hope to see more of your photos!

Sincerely,
Chris Parkinson's cousin,
