Brad Doty's "One More Lap " at Eldora

In 1988, rising sprint car star Brad Doty was involved in a serious accident at Eldora Speedway that left him without the use of his legs. Exactly 10 years later, the Ohio native returned to the track in a specially outfitted car to pace the field before the 15th annual Kings Royal.

Steve Evans was the commentator and Doty never won the famous race.

That was an awesome night! Sammy was bumping him before he came around.

It was an awesome tribute. As I watched, I could have sworn that the late great Steve Evans even choked up a time or two as he was calling the action...

They'd need to do that to me too if I ever get to go behind the wheel after a career ender.  Put a restrictor plate on it.

I watched this live when they aired it. I was 20 at the time, and had tears rolling down my face seeing my hero get a couple more laps.
