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

Jason McDougle was there. Stockton wasn't because of a failed tire test. I watched the show on Dirt Vision.

Yes, McDougal was driving for KKM in the #67. KO Motorsports was not in attendance at the Xtremeevent.

Yes I knew that. I was just pointing out he was there.

what did it pay to win the extreme feature ? My guess was 6000 to 10,000.

the track last night was actually pretty good for this part of the country. I remember one night some top name travelers in the pits at a Mo. race track comment they used a month worth of tires a night every time they come here.

Who are you and what have you ever won??? I want full complete details. I’ll then check to make sure you are not a bs artist. I’ll hope you have won a National title and have proven to help out other people like Mr. Ballou has. He ruffles quite a few feathers for sure, and sometimes he is his own worst enemy. Love him or hate him there is no way bs is going to be pulled over in him. Again who are you and what have you won. Congrats on working a day job and going racing. RB tries to compete with the BIG teams. Do you do that???

I like the fact that he calls Ballou a whiner then goes on to whine about not having a don ott engine etc.
