Nobody has mentioned JJ Yeley or Dave Blaney. I remeber my Dad met Yeley at the track the first year he ran SCRA, I think he was 17. My Dad was painting a billboard and Yeley and his Dad were walking the track and checking it out. Yeley looked so young my Dad to ask who drove. I remember watch him that night and he was wild but fast I think he ended up on his lid. He ran quite a few other time at SMS and I am sure a few of you can recall him dueling with Sheridan at one the best SCRA races at SMS. Dave Blaney ran quite a few times with the outlaws I used to have a picture signed by him when he ran the Vivarin car. I'll see if I can dig it up.
Dave Blaney -22 Bill Davis car
JJ Yeley- 18 Gibbs car

when i was younger i grew up watching ivan baldwin race alot at 99 speedway. he raced with my uncle troy beebe who ran some busch race's in the late 80's early 90's i have a race on tape somehwere when a young jeff gordon was just getting started out in busch .

He was to young to race at SMS.  You had to be 16 years old. Someone brought it to Doug Forts attention that he was only 14 at the time, So Doug sent him away. I belive it was an Insurance issue.

Jeff Gordon was born in 1971 so if he raced in 1992 that would make him 21 years old

When was the last year of the Late model 3-3-3 format and who won each race?

They raced it during the dan simkins race then changed the format in what year?
