Re: RIP Former Eldora & Gas City Promoter Jerry Gappens

Jerry was a class act and one of the nicest guys ever!

First time I met him, I was thinking "what now?" I seen pictures of what he looked like so I knew it was him. This was the first time we...

Re: Former Boswell (Kamp) owner now owns Chandler?

According to the auction site there's still 11 days 19 hours left. 2 bids in total, current bid is $60,000.

I won't comment whether it's good or bad about Mr. Daugherty buying it. Never met him or...

Re: USAC Insurace for drivers

One more issue to be worried about is how the police report the accident. I guess, after talking to a friend of mine that was air lifted out of the track multiple years ago. (Non USAC event though)...

Re: J.O Memorial, Lawrenceburg. Sat April 13th

Wouldn't have hit the wall if Robert held the wheel straight. Robert has enough experience to know if you're getting towed from the rear you have to hold the wheel straight. If you don't the front...

Re: J.O Memorial, Lawrenceburg. Sat April 13th

Guy is barely out of the truck and Ballou is already shoving him. Tow truck guy said he was going to drop the car and leave it there and let them figure out what to do with it, but the USAC official...

Re: J.O Memorial, Lawrenceburg. Sat April 13th

What all went on? Everyone I talked that was there when it happened, including ones down in the work area said he's upset about the tow truck passing his work area. Which wouldn't be an issue if he...

Re: J.O Memorial, Lawrenceburg. Sat April 13th

Seemed like a pretty good night.
Minus Ballou throwing a fit and getting physical with a tow truck driver. As usual nothing will probably be done about it.

Re: Burg still on for Saturday

Turn 3 Dip always made for great photos, but tended to send cars into a bike towards the wall. So to a point i'm glad to hear that it's gone. I haven't ran Kokomo in a couple years, anyone know if...

Re: Brownstown Midwest Thunder Sprints

Trey bought a new tall cage DRC for his local car. So he'd be running a car very similar to the new cars Ken bought for Trey to run. Which will help him get notes and everything, since each chassis...

Re: NO Mav coverage tonight???

Personally I'm glad it's on Flo now. I actually watch the chili bowl now. Other years I never wasted my time watching it. It was kind of pointless to watch it, but can't watch the last couple main...

Re: Home Track

The closest track to me is Limaland, only a couple of miles away. Been going there 20+ years, I refuse to accept them as my home track or probably ever go back. Especially after screwing over one of...

Re: Emerson Axsom has new plans for the 2024 season.

You'd be surprised how many people use midgets or non wing cars just to get their name out for a winged ride Some don't actually care about midgets or non wing. (Not saying Emerson didn't care about...

Re: Ohio Sprint Week 2024 Dates.....

Added it up on google. Was around 856 miles starting at Attica. Millstream date is questionable. I understand they're trying to get tracks closer to their normal day they race.

Re: High Limit Buys All Star Circuit of Champions.

KB78 I agree that some of the non wing guys have dabbled in winged cars the last couple of years. You're forgetting some stuff on Bacon though. Bacon has been running winged for many years, used to...

Re: Chili Bowl now 20k win and 2k to start A main

Even if the Chili Bowl was 100k to win, I don't think Bell would be there, due to his boss. Coy was the big advocate of getting Joe Gibbs to let Bell race dirt. Since Coy passed away I don't think...

Re: Alex Bright

Way I look at it, I have a very good bet that most people saying it was intentional has never raced a car like a sprint car, midget, mini sprint etc... The cars can be evil on the starts. There's...

Re: Wisconsin WingLess Sprints. Thoughts.

Problem would be in my opinion trying to get car counts. In the more central/northern Indiana region around Gas City/Montpelier you'd be fighting the USAC D2 series. I don't see a lot of 410 guys...

Re: Why don't Non Wing Drivers race Wing

It's a lot different than just putting a wing on a car. Front Axle is shorter on a winged car, both run different birdcages, completely different setup and winged cars have thicker bottom rails, just...

Re: Eldora Issues

I'm guessing the late start is so some of the teams could get to the races, due to not getting off of work until 4:30-5. (Mainly speaking about mods and stock teams)
