micro94 · 12/29/13, 1:34 AM

Umm. Arent those Friday results for non wing feature with Saturdays heat results cause I know Culp won tonight and Bayston was second.

treecitytornado · 12/29/13, 3:21 AM

Wonder why the qual times are a little slower than yesterday? Figured they would be faster, with more rubber laid down. Unless the cars are too tight?

Rumble Racing Series · 12/29/13, 3:31 AM

micro94 is correct -- we are running down the correct feature results for the non-winged 600s.

ARCA91 · 12/29/13, 10:21 AM

Two names were left out in the Second Midget Semi-Feature for Saturday night. The #15 of Andretti was 4th and red #0 of Alex Malycke was 5th, a lap down, but still ahead of a number of crashed cars. Rumble Series may have overloaded that particular race with a lot of start and parks who completed about one lap each and pulled off. At least they got the correct driver swap in the #61 from Bobby East to McCune though:

Second semi-feature (12 laps) – Clouse, J. Liguori, Kaiser, Jimmy McCune (No. 61), **Andretti**, **Malycke -1**, Corson OFF, Gough OFF, Nuckles OUT, Kaiser OUT, Roahrig OUT

We apologize to Blane Culp on the wrong post of Saturday results. Our person posting was handed the wrong information We will get the word out correctly and often soon. Sprint Car and Midget magazine Bill Holder is working on a story for the class.

Congratulations to Blane...the non winged 600 dirt rules class were great for the first time out. We look forward to 2014. All the best to everyone in the New Year.

Rumble Racing Series · 12/29/13, 4:09 PM

You are correct. There was confusion over the car numbers, and the results of the second midget semi-feature have been corrected.

McCreeryMotorsports · 12/29/13, 10:05 PM

Ok so since the race is over how do you not know the finishing order for the non wing feature. The only reason I ask is I was the 3rd place finishing driver and after about 3 questionable calls I feel I have the right to be concerned.

Thank you
Daniel Robinson

Daniel,

This is an embarrassing problem for us. We have the results, but they have been buried somewhere in the load up of the event material.

We are working on getting them up as soon as we can. The good thing is for the first time, we have a respected 600 scorer who is also a writer about 600 racing. He just joined the team this year. Some of our staff has been hard to reach on a Sunday. I am going to be calling him Monday to have this worked out. He did a good job in his first time out.

Sorry for the delay. I will be calling you, and all of the non winged 600 teams to discuss the good show you put on both days.

Our event ran very smoothly this year, but this is a bit of a black mark on the post event management.

Thanks,
Tony Barhorst
