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: Taking Over The Helm Of GC...

Thing is a lot of people bash Larry. Way I look at it, out of everyone I talked to. It didn't sound like anyone, but Larry was even considering promoting GC when Jerry left. So if Larry didn't...

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)

Re: 450 hp for $15,000!

I like how some of you guys complain about the cars being the same or clone cars, yet midgets and sprint cars are basically that right now.
Even the Chili Bowl, is almost that, minus a couple of...

That works as long as someone has 4-5k to pay for school. In 2022 they made it where you have to go through a certified school, which usually cost 4-5k. Good luck with getting a grant or anything...

Re: Honda’s rollin!

There's quite a few 2.4L Honda's used in the lower division midget series also. Like the D2 series and Badger series.There is at least 2 Honda powered D2's at the BC39. #36c of Ian Creager and #6k of...

Re: Usac: Larson undenied, delivers first irp usac midget wi

The problem is, you have a guy that was legal and finished 2nd. He may have gotten the money, but he doesn't get credited with the win. How does someone get Dq'd then still keep the win?

Re: Usac: Larson undenied, delivers first irp usac midget wi

Technically speaking Larson keeps the win, but does not keep the earnings. If O'Gara won and failed post race inspection I bet he'd lose everything including the win.

Exactly without Larry, both Montpelier and Gas City probably wouldn't be running right now.

There was quite big ruts when Jerry was running Gas City also....

Re: So who's getting the Reinbold/Underwood ride?

Re: So who's getting the Reinbold/Underwood ride?

It'd be cool for T-Mez, but I don't think he'd leave RMS, probably a good idea to stay with them also.

Re: Chase Briscoe gets his first career cup win.
