Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

B main starting - they are taking top 4

Top 4 results
7B Brian Olson
18 Travis Welpott
17 Max McGee
6RR Joe Lagouri

Can some explain what good a 6 car b-main is at mid-night? Why wouldn't they just start 22 cars and get the fans that packed the place tonight home? Its been a three ring circus here all night

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

Well considering this night might turn into the 24 hours of D.O.'s Racin Fest, I'm glad I didn't come out. However, seeing that Shane H. is running, I wish I had made the trip from Brownsburg. Oh well, I do want to thank my buddy Dru for taking the time to keep us all updated on the results.

I did make the trek to Eldora for reasons I won't bore you all with, but considering what USAC and the guys at Eldora had to deal with, due to the weather, they made the right decisions. I did think that they might have tried to run it on Sunday.

Go Shane!!

That was me (Dru) Aaron. I am on DO's sign in while he is shooting the race. Again, I am sorry. I misspoke.

Nevermind to my last post, sounds like s nightmare for fans this weekend, let's hope next weekend is better for gas city, the burg and Kokomo

What happened to stanbrough?

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

Just got home after leaving the track at 9:30 (after the failed attempt at the first heat).

I give the track crew props for trying to get the show in, they were doing everything they could, but it was bad evening.

Before I left, the track wasn't rough, but was so wet and slippery you just could not race on it. With a 2 1/2 hour drive home, I was out of there.

Again, while it was a bad night, it wasn't due to a lack of effort by the track crew. In hindsight, maybe they would have just cancelled and been better off.

Mosley,
What are you trying to say...repeatedly ????

I wish I could've been there tonight. I'll never complain when a promoter fights to get in a race instead of canceling.

He may have just loaded it up. I'm sure there were some that did. I would have. Just trying to hot lap, they were sliding all over the place. Cars were going everywhere. There just wasn't anything to get ahold of.

So how did they finish?

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

I know many did just that, load up and leave (from talking to other people). One person said the racer he was there with broke 1500 in parts and weren't even racing when it happened. I got a video of turn 1 that shows the track condition, I will upload it tomorrow. I will say that it seems the track was slowly coming in when I left, but it was already 11:20 and they had just finished heat races and were running super stocks heats and still had bombers to go also before they got to features.

Also, I will say the track did handle the power outage (sub station issues as I seen flashes in the distance and police officer confirmed it) quite well and just had the fireworks people shoot them off. Then when the fireworks were over, the power was back. Maybe they should have postponed, but people would have complained. It is dang if you do, dang if you don't in situation like today.

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

Alot of apologies from someone who is doing us a HUGE favor by updating us!!
No worries!! Just thank you for the updates!!!:9::9:

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

Seen that they towed off a bomber using two tow trucks. One tow truck pulling the other towing the bomber. Also, seen on Lloyd Walls facebook that 6 cars took the start and pulled off the track (make that up to 10). Good night all, going to bed now.

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

A Main has 6 laps scored and Lance Grimes flipped in turn 2. He's ok. Sorry about the posting being under par, really I have poured my heart into it and being in the press box and having a night like tonight, sometimes things get confusing. The reason that only 8 were posted for the amain at first is because I was bumped off the internet for no reason, just like when the power went out, and the long delays, etc.

Aaron, I don't know what the problem is. I got Hero and Hot Dog qualifying mixed up with "regular qualifying", and we cancelled the Hero and Hot dog qualifying because of the delay, so again, I am sorry if there was a misunderstanding. That's all! This is not DO this is Druzella Laycock so it was me that misspoke and I hope this clears up the problem.

The cars are back racing. I will post to the end, but probably not anymore!

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

Dru, You're a saint for sticking with it! Thank you so much!!!

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

I want to thank her also. I was going to try to do it if no one was, but I wouldn't have been able to do as good as job as she has done.

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

BTY Stanbrough left before the B main, as did many cars.

Re: IOW DO Racin-Fest tonight updates
 

Dru, please don't get upset. You are doing a lot of us a great service so we can find out how are friends are doing tonight. Those who choose to fly off the keyboard and start to immediately question what is being communicated need to slow down and take a moment before they start typing in questions and thoughts about what is going on.

Thanks again for making the time to do this on a night where you could have easily said the heck with it. Despite everything, a bunch of us are very grateful.

George
