Track was definitely abrasive. This has happened before. As for the price increase, everything is affected by fuel prices. Price gouging is hurting everything. Maybe it will lead to tracks packed looser, and side by side racing instead of slide jobs.

Oooh...tough guy. Your opinion doesn't mean anymore than anybody else. I stepped out behind my keyboard, what are you going to do about it tough guy?

I think they did a nice job showcasing the new series but if they’re going to run them again with the WoO sprints, they need to make some tweaks to the program to ensure good track conditions for both A Mains. Having said that, the heat races for the Woo last night were the best of the year by far.

Interesting part of the night for me was the top two had USAC Racing logos on their fire suits and not Extreme.

One of the top teams to announce they were running for the Extreme championship, KO Motorsports (Stockton/McDougal), were a no-show. Hoosier's obvious tire building issues cost the Extreme series a top team.

A cool spring night in an area that has had plenty of moisture and still with so many cars the track took rubber and ate tires despite the track crew reworking it several times. Can't wait to see the same program in the middle of the summer.

Hoosier makes DOT approved street tires that most likely would survive an a-main without cutting down the advertised number laps

Now that's optimism!

That's ridiculous! I certainly don't agree with everything Robert says, but IMO he has every right to complain about that.

When this all started, all I heard is how this will make racers more money. I agree to a point. If a team runs USAC and runs Extreme instead of local shows, they should make more. I thought this was interesting, the feature purse last night was $22,425. The USAC shows in MO next month the feature purse is $25,100. Not many support classes make what Extreme paid last night. I also thought Johnny Gibson was really good talking up the series before turning the mic over to Rob Klepper.
Feature payout was $23,625 which was a standard or minimum payout for XOS, some will pay considerable more. It paid $100 to win each heat race, $100 for fast time and hard charger. Also paid out $2,700 in tow money to top point teams

Stockon is suspended for their failed tire test which is why he wasn’t there.
