I'm glad the O'Connors took the chance on opening Gas City, for any or as many nights as they see fit. I only wish my schedule allowed me to be there more often.
Thank you to all those who attended the race Tuesday night. It was the only non wing sprint car date on our 2016 schedule, and it was nice to see the teams that came in for the event.
In July 2015, the fair board opened the racing doors again on the grounds of the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds. The track was shuttered August 11, 1990 in a preemptive effort to stave off a lawsuit...
I appreciate both your and Nate's comments about Plymouth. Nate is likely on point with the Outlaws date that prepping a track for wing 900hp cars and USAC midgets is a tall order. But the best...
Plymouth was the first track sanctioned to run the Pro Sprint class. The plan is to make things right before expanding them to other tracks. Glen Ridge Speedway on the East Coast (NY I believe) is...
The Rumble mixes up the divisions pretty well so that the 600s and midgets don't smoke out the place. The karts and quarters don't hurt matters any, and when the doors are able to be open the...
It was weird the way the commentators mentioned Larson was closing on the leader a second a lap, then suddenly the caution came out. Larson had a bad restart and that was that.
I had heard Raney put out an offer to take any free dirt that could be available. My guess is he's not filling in the gator pit off the backchute (although that has needed to happen for years, and...
Chris has a lot of good points.
It's hard to please everyone. One of the announcer's top priorities is to keep the promoter happy. The guy putting the cash (or check, or bag of popcorn) in my hand...
It was a ton of fun seeing Ike Beasley back in the wing cars. He was on his marks but ran out of fuel on lap 35 while leading. Aaron Pierce had his black 26 in a solid fourth just behind...
Kyle simply was trying to use space currently occupied by his fellow competitors. It happens in this race. I do believe he abused some people and to be honest I heard one top six finisher say that...
I had a pretty good angle looking into three when Clauson and Smith went in there. There was about 3 feet between them. Bryan had no brakes in traffic with 25 to go. His car got away from him and...
Every year when the it's "talk like a pirate" day I remember heading over, in the rain, and debating whether it'd be Darrrrland or Walkerrrrrrrrr or someone else.
As luck would have it, the company car developed a miss in the engine coming up I 75 in Georgia then a severe pull just south of Atlanta. I gave it the afternoon off in hopes of it correcting itself...
