That was a triple mud plug cushion before they cut it off and ended up being a double mud plug cushion. I loved it!

For me personally, watching a sprint car driver master that cushion would be pure enjoyment!

Attn: Joe Spiker... Skip the late models next year and run a SPRINT CAR show (same purse) on that track.

What ever happened to the track we had a couple of weeks ago, smooth and slick? Last three race tracks haven't been the best. Jmo

Dislike! While I'm sure most people on here love sprints and would love to see a big sprint show, there are many people that like late models and want to keep them at LPS. I'm not saying a big sprint show would be bad (already have 3 or 4 USAC showS, mscs show and a few other big sprint shows). I'm just saying the schedule needs a little mix up to find new fans. Not everyone is a sprint fan. So maybe try running a few more big mod shows or super stock shows. The schedule already caters to the sprints, it needs a little variety to it. Maybe a $5000 mod show and $2000 super stock nationals or something.

I know what your saying Dustin and honestly I wouldn't have a problem with either big pay Mod or Super Stock show.

I ended up moving from my usual spot tonight because I was tired of being near a whinefest.

UMP officials asked for more water on the track before hotlaps and then the drivers complained the track was to wet... Lol!!!

Totally agree! I know last Thursday some of the issues were due to lack of cars, but....we scraped at least 50 lbs of mud off the car everytime we came off the track, and I now think a large portion of Putnam County is now located behind my garage after washing the car when we got home...this weather has everything screwed up. They have to over-water the track or everyone would be complaining about how slick and dusty the track is....tough job.
