ARCA: Home Sweet Home
2008 ARCA RE/MAX Series Champion Justin Allgaier was a familiar face in the garage area at the Illinois State Fairgrounds this weekend. Allgaier traveled from Bristol where he competed in Friday's NASCAR Nationwide Series event for Penske Racing to his hometown of Springfield, Illinois, for Sunday's Allen Crowe 100 ARCA RE/MAX Series race. Allgaier is the 2006 ARCA Allen Crowe 100 race winner and spent much of Sunday lending advice to current series drivers, including Robb Brent and Parker Kligerman.

"I don't know that I gave Parker Kligerman anything that won him the race," said Allgaier. "He's definitely a talented racecar driver and these guys are definitely talented at what they do. I know they were worried about it coming into this race, that they were going to have a tough time with it but I think he proved that they had a good racecar. I wish we could have seen what would have happened if Frank [Kimmel] wouldn't have had to pit there at the end. I'm happy for Parker and hopefully something I told him helped him. It was probably more so just him learning this place, getting used to it and having a great car underneath him. The restarts he had were unbelievable."
Following Sunday's Allen Crowe 100, Kligerman continues to lead the ARCA RE/MAX Series Point Standings by 35 points over Justin Lofton.
