First off the little 500 is the best pavement sprint car race of the year hands down. So quit bashing it and being negative sure are there issues with push trucks yes but its like that every year just part of it you know going into every year but its the same for everyone. When else do you get to see 33 of the best sprint cars on the track together besides at the little 500 never this is it. It was a awesome race as always.

WAS YOU THERE???? Not one person there can honestly say the push truck drivers did a good job. I was in the infield I watched what was going on they looked like a bunch of clowns. .. Yes its always an issue I understand there will be mishaps but come on these guys flat out stunk it up. Anderson ruined that race last night I personally told an official the numbers of the 3 cars that where leaking fluid His exact response was we are gonna let them rrun. Trust me I love this race as mush as the next guy but Anderson really needs to put in more effort on training there help they ruined what what would have been the best little 500 ever

Sorry about that.. I'm a fan of updates as well. At that point I wasn't trying to update just showing displeasure with the track... I did try after I was asked but I was in the infield and its not easy to do from a pit area....

Been there done that they were really bad

Yes I was there. I have been there for the past 15 little 500 go every year. And really didn't notice with that much of a difference with the push truck drivers its always like that. What 3 cars you talking about leaking fluid I saw 1 maybe 2 cars that possibly had a leak.
