PENSACOLA, Fla. – While four drivers experienced the jubilation of racing their ways into the 53rd Snowball Derby on Saturday afternoon, several other big names were left heartbroken and dejected. “We were just way too loose, really the whole race,” said Sammy Smith. “It just means we have to be better and we weren’t good enough this year,” Sammy Smith noted. “We’ll move on to the next one and hopefully go out and make the race next year.”. “We may have missed the show, but it wasn’t from a lack of effort,” Gragson added. “I felt like we were pacing better than those guys,” Gragson admitted. Despite the disappointment of missing out on the Snowball Derby this year, Gragson wants to be back. “We’ll see,” said Gragson after being asked if he’d come back next year.
