From wild battles for position, to big air, and leaders crashing, the Turkey Night Grand Prix pretty much had it all. If you missed any of the action we wanted to bring you the key moments to get you up to speed on what went down at this year's Turkey Night Grand Prix.

Troy DeGaton Flips To Top Of The Catch Fence

Troy DeGaton got some of the biggest air you'll see a non-wing Sprint Car get during the third qualifier race for the USAC West Coast Sprint Cars. He got squeezed into the wall coming off of turn four and went for a big ride. At first the car stayed close to the ground, but eventually the nose dug into the dirt and catapulted the car into the air where it actually scrapped the top wire of the catch fence. You don't see that every day.
