Schrader still rules
2:11 PM
Just had to visit with Kenny Schrader up in the lounge of the Wood Brothers' hauler to tell him that my new Schwan's Home Service delivery driver had told me this past week that Schrader still ruled "Schwan Nation" despite switching teams at the beginning of this season.
Sunday morning, Schrader was sitting with a laptop -- where else -- in his lap watching the weather radar that unfortunately turned out to be a true forecast of the race's delay. Schrader just laughed when told that some had speculated he'd be at Toledo Friday night to watch Supermodifieds.
"I won at Quincy, Ill., Tuesday night [in a dirt Late Model]," Schrader said. "I didn't do so well at Pevely [Mo.] Wednesday night, but we won at I-96 Friday night."

I have always liked Schrader ,but the night I saw him,Kenny and the #8 at PIR I became a loyal fan . He and Kenny took the time in the pits to sign a autograph and pat a nine year old race fan on the back . Guys Keep up the good work ,who knows that little 9 year old might be one of their drivers someday,
