Vogler Classic (7) (1,326)

Re: Vogler Classic
5/6/24, 2:19 PM
I am a big Grant fan so I am a bit of an apologist, but he is aggressive 100% of the time and I don't think it's because of points and I don't think it's intentionally dirty. If he was racing for...

I was sitting closer to turn one and at the track I thought that Taylor drifted up like she didn't expect him to be there, when I watched the replay on Flo it looks like Grant drifted down. Either...

Watching Grant and Seavey go at it for all of those laps was incredible!! You had the feeling that whoever got out front first between those two was going to win it and that is probably what would...

I am typically not a huge Ballou fan, heck of a driver I just get tired of listening to him whine. That being said he made a whale of a charge in the last few laps to get that win so kudos to him and...

Yeah, Kody was in a class by himself Sunday but the race for second and fourth for the last 25 laps was intense. I thought the racing throughout the field was the best I had seen at Winchester by the...

I think Tommy has a great nickname as it seems to roll off of the tongue- Tommy "Thunder" Malcolm.
Also, I am not a sprint car mechanic but I see he has the stacked torsion tubes on the front of his...

I went to watch it and found that I was a victim of modern streaming platforms, I do not have that channel, I will find it somewhere soon.

I wonder what the point system looked like for some of these guys to have decimals behind in their points? Interesting.

I just re-watched this, looks to me like Rogers is minding his business up on the cushion trying to complete laps and then he got over the cushion a little bit and had either had to lift to recover...

Re: Some quick Burg Notes

I plan on supporting the track again this year but I am also concerned about cutting any banking. I liked Lawrenceburg in this configuration and the reason is that I felt like it was the old Eldora,...

I don't believe that Stockon has ran the full schedule the last couple years and with Pursley joining Team AZ it make sense that they will pick and choose.
Another exciting year, My opinion but I...

We went to Atomic Speedway when I was growing up, right now I live 40 minutes East of Eldora and 30 minutes South of Waynesfield. The Four Crown is the event that I have not missed for many years. I...

As a family we used to go to Atomic Speedway just south of Chillicothe, Ohio on a pretty regular basis back in the 70's. They knew when that number Zero would pull in that they were racing for...

Re: USAC Silver Crown Jennerstown Speedway

Of all of the USAC divisions, the Crown cars on asphalt is the least exciting to me as a rule. That being said, two of the early races that I am very excited about next year is Salem and Jennerstown...

I don't like him- He talks too much, he doesn't give enough information, he's too quiet, he tries to shout over the cars, his catch phrases are stupid, he doesn't know all the names, sometimes he...

In some small part I have to wonder how much this situation will affect Non-wing racing. Many of the stars of the Non-wing world have dabbled into wing racing the last couple years including Bacon,...

Late Model folks definitely have more tracks to choose from I think and it looks like you are well West of me, but Fairbury and Brownstown are both on my bucket list.

I'm pretty sure no one cares but I keep record of the races I attend, so I thought I would post some numbers and we can compare seasons.
I was fortunate enough to get to 35 events this year, well...

You might as well add A High Limit race to the schedule as well, I may even make the drive for that.
