It's pretty rough, but I live in Columbus and its poured there every night since Tuesday. This track is more than raceable. I was at The Burg for midget week and it's was more rough than this. Just free it up and go. Whys everyone being such a Sally?!? These powri guys must like to run on pavement...

They must have stocked up on hot dogs, hamburgers, and ice cream for tonight. Keep working the track so they can sell them out. BTW Where is this 18 year old phenon track prep guy to fix this track.

This track is gonna be so rough. Great for corn but not for racing! Way to much water and dug the track up way to much I was in the 4 th hot lap ruts were over a foot deep. Then they rolled it in but the moisture is still there and its gonna rut right back up I promise soooooo sad

You cant fix the track. Either race or cancel it. Ridiculous

Nothing you can do now. Like Brian said, it's gonna be rough all night. That's why I said free it up and go. I raced a mini sprint at Brownstown after a 20 minute downpour. Track was rough as crap...but nothing you could do about it. It was the same for everyone. I didn't complain...just sayin. They'll race and someone will win.
But yea, prolly not a good week to bring in an 18 year old kid to do the track prep. Midgets are light cars, that need a decently smooth tracks.


Ps, bad idea to run sprints first. Should run lightest cars first. U watch....
