Oh, we live for these moments, just like these ones.  The 2020 USAC National season has been full of character, surviving the pandemic to thrive throughout a busy calendar in which we witnessed moment after significant moment, one after another, in an action-packed sequence.  The comebacks, the races, the milestones, the firsts, the wild rides and those performances we won’t soon forget, they’re all here for us to live again.

    Ray Harroun (Indy 500).  George Washington (U.S. President).  Gene Harley (USAC).  They all have something in common – they were the first to win in their respective disciplines.  During the 2020 USAC National season, there were a number of “firsts” in a variety of categories from on track to behind the scenes and for those who it was a “longtime coming” that we all cheered for this past year.

    Ticking away the moments that make up a raceday, these are the most amazing single performances that don’t really fit into any other category.  These are the individual moments that were either significant in some form or fashion in a historical sense, or were moments in time that immediately established themselves as ones we wouldn’t soon forget from the 2020 USAC National season.

With that said, these drivers had already cemented their places in the hierarchy within the sport with their longstanding successes. The stats these drivers posted this season just further added to their everlasting legacies.

    We cringe when it happens, and we hold our breath until we witness them emerge from the carnage.  It’s not the pretty side of the sport we love, and the end result is a lot of shop time put in to rebuild and gather up the pieces to race on.  Crashes are an inherent part of the sport and these sometimes are the consequences.  Here, we present eight of the gnarliest, wild rides from the 2020 USAC National season, all of which saw each driver walk away and race on.

    “Don’t call it a comeback.
