Conrad's Corner -A look at the IRA Sprints visit to Knoxville Saturday night

Conrad Nelson was on hand at the Knoxville Raceway Saturday night as the IRA Sprints made their annual visit to the track. The Knoxville regulars weren't the friendliest of hosts as they took the top ten spots in the feature, won by Brian Brown. Gregg Bakker set a qualifying record for the 360 sprints, but it was Dustin Selvage taking the feature win. Check out Conrad's photo highlights below.
