Floracing Night in America

Tracks and promoters should take note of these races and how they’re ran! Amazing race. Started watching at 5:30 and over at 8:15. Focused on main attraction and got it in and over quick with lots of constant action. I feel like this model is the recipe to success and growth. If more tracks followed suit I think it’d be a win win for all.

Was darn good race. 50 laps caution free helped too. Crews and officials didn’t play around with little down time between hot laps, quals, and heats.

I agree with both of these posts. One caveat however is, not every race brings the attention that a Kyle Larson race with NASCAR stars brings. It’s my belief that the people in charge know what that exposure brings and put the proper people in place that work to achieve this type of outcome. National series should definitely take note. However a weekly track with 5 classes need to hope that a lot of the people racing have a lot of relatives

Larson resembled Ross Chastain many laps riding that fence! Kudos to KL!

Agree with everyone. This should be the model for midweek races. Two divisions! They moved this program right along with no delays. Kudos to Larson and FLO for working together on this. Bulls Gap was PACKED! I've been Flo Racing Night In America shows at Brownstown and Lincoln, IL and both were over in ample time. I think FLO streaming live keeps the show moving fast.
