I call it a "clean sweep", and it usually happens at least a couple of times each year.

I'd say that has happened alot (especially in the 1980's).

Steve Kinser did it alot and did it at least once at Knoxville Nationals if my memory is correct.  It would be much more easy to day with fastest TT start on pole for heats.

I'm pretty sure Sammy was the first to do this in New Jersey or somewhere near there.  It also hasn't happened as many times as you would think much the same as a Gordie Howe 'Hat Trick' which is a Goal an Assist and a Fighting Major in the same game.  Gordie only had two of those in his career and when you consider he had over 2,000 penalty minutes that's not often....

That lacked a Dash, but still a hell of a feat. Years ago at the Nationals, there was a dash on the qualifying nights for cash. So a clean sweep was 4 individual events: TT, Heat, Dash, Feature.

Mike brooks was the 1st I know of? In the tmc 12 car 1980 started off the pole in a day show rain sucks he's burned the tires off the mickow 12 and Steve kinser wins his 1st of many in bob trostles vise grip 20 car. Tire was good for Steve bob trostle left it on the wheel and it was his coffee tables in his racing room.
