them while they were battling each other 1could get them both." Kopp pushed harder and harder as the race wore on and said he had a better line than Springsteen and Camlin going through turns three and four, but on the white-flag lap he pushed too hard and got out of shape, leaving him to follow the two across the line at the finish. . Evans finally settled into a ninthplace finish after trying a high line for a sho~t time. "Maybe I wasted my time by going there," said the Canadian. "Maybe I should have went up another tooth or so. I was giving it all away in the middle, guys were just shooting by on the groove. You can't race up top. The cushion was too deep, way too rough. You can hang on for a few laps, but you'd have to be Charles Atlas to ride the whole race up there." _ Butler and Darling had also worked their way around a fading Price, who was suffering from handling problems. "I blistered a tire," said a frustrated Price, who ended the National in 12th. "I couldn't stay on the groove. 1 was on the gas and it would just keep going straight." . Also struggling with traction was Darling, who finished in 11th. "I should have done better today, but at least I was in there," said Darling. "The tire was worn down to nothing. Immature experience, I guess." Roeder, Beattie, Sims, Beyer and Lynch filled out the field.
