Re: Darland Turns Smackdown into Knockout

My take on it is that the sheriffs and any law enforcement individuals are supposed to UPHOLD laws and act in accordance to established guidelines. NOT create their own ideas for whom and how to...

Re: Darland Turns Smackdown into Knockout

Mr Shunk--

Kokomo Speedway Kokomo Smackdown Recap by the Other Eckert

I wrote about the Smackdown--including my assessment of the preposterous Kevin Thomas Jr/Team #17RW debacle--on my brother's website. Interested to see some feedback, if you decide to read it....

Re: Terre Haute Blame is Misplaced

One other thing: In this modern world, is there no such thing as an affordable and environmentally-approved substance that can limit dust in a racetrack-type of application? Couldn't one of us with...

Re: Terre Haute Blame is Misplaced

A racer's decision to race can be a wrong one made for what are essentially almost all the right reasons. Almost. A sanctioning body's decision to self-promote an event (and thus accept...

Effort and Expertise

Before I say anything else, I did not go to Terre Haute Sunday. I have seen some of the best races of my life at The Action Track, and in all three open wheel divisions. Memories are many, and I have...

Re: Action track status

This has been my thinking exactly. First, on the race today: What experienced racing fan gave this arrangement even a thread of a chance to be anything other than a debacle? It's the 21st Century....

Re: Eldora update

No offense to Grant or Hendricks or Riggs, but compared to the All-Killer/No-Filler Heat #2, Heat # 3 looks like the one to be slotted in. I'd like to see a career wins-comparison between the...

Re: updates at tss

Any blind draw format should include some form of passing point-system. ASCS has a format that should have at least aspects of it incorporated into others'. Just a tweak or two to the current MSCS...

Re: Action Track?

I don't care that "usac told them to water the track"...if that photo is real, that is INSANE. It is indefensible. It demonstrates a lack of understanding regarding track preparation that is beyond...

Re: Eldora Update????

What Helfrich has made work is more of a hay and straw base, which acts as a sort of fiber for the clay to affix to. Oh...and he also works that track like he's working on bread dough, kneading it to...

Re: Eldora Update????

Re: Eldora usac

If you get it at the source (PA) it is about $15.00 per case. Elsewhere, I'll not speculate.

Re: Important Open Wheel Times Article

Mr Monahan- I've thought about that issue as well, and Kevin's opinion agreeing with the still-competing drivers not going in over retired ones is a matter of written record. I've often thought of a...

Re: Important Open Wheel Times Article
