Anderson ran sprints, Had 17 cars. ANd thats Indiana.

A car that definately doesn't have top power went from 21st to 7th. I have seen very few sprints loose motors at the burg.. The wall. Well don't hit the wall :)

its not just that, its the fear of people thinking that they are going to get out horsepowered, but by feature time it just all comes down to drivers and like always cream rises to the top.

And this is meant as no offense to anyone, but "BIG race track HARD on little Pockets!"

Did Burdette jump someones tire OR did he get launched in the air by that gigantic rock (as big around as a sewer lid) that the track workers (2) carried off the track???
And as far as the low car counts go I wish I knew why the cars are staying away ,its a shame. Is it the track (speeds and walls ) or is it the promotor or costs at the gate?????There has to be talk in the racing community as to why people are not coming there like they used to.......

For a lot of teams the length of the haul is a factor as well.

I think the admission costs, the haul, and the damage to equipment on a track of this type. This will also begin to affect fan counts with the economy like it is. We go where the cars are and the tracks have the best shows.

Lazyifoto, What the track workers carried off was a chunk of clay that Brett tore off when his car dug in. Which we replaced with smaller pieces of damp clay and packed in.
Just the facts please, Dave
