The ASA series makes its first visit to Chip Ganassi's short-lived
Chicago Motor Speedway for the first of its three superspeedway races in
the 2000 season. Mike Garvey picks up the win, his second over the
course of three races, against one of the largest fields of the season
and leads the most laps in the process.

With his NASCAR Busch Series career coming to a premature end early
1990s ASA standout Glenn Allen, Jr. returns to the series for his first
start in just under four years. Allen, a former NASCAR Busch Series
Rookie of the Year, took over the Goodwrench #4 Pontiac following
Derrick Gilchrist's two race stint in the car, finished just outside the
top-10 here, and would run the car for the rest of the season.

Short track favorite Bobby Gill returns to ASA for his lone start of the
2000 season, and first overall in nearly three years, and qualifies
right at the front of the field but finishes poorly after crashing out.

I live in Atlantic Canada, and we've never really had racers come from
our neck of the woods to race with some of the best in the US... except one.

The morning of this race, my mother and I were watching Raceday on TNN
when the ASA race report started. There was some Canadian hotshot rookie
by the name of Scott Fraser starting on the front row, and we both
started whooping and hollering. I know that sounds silly, but we had no
idea Fraser was going south to run some ASA races. It wasn't long before
this that we had seen him dominate at our local track, New Brunswick
International Speedway (now known as Speedway 660).

He put together some quality runs in that series, and he made us all
extremely proud. While he never could quite get into victory lane, he
gave us locals something to cheer for, and it was amazing.

Thanks for the memories, Scott. Hope you're resting easy.
