If you're a true fan that follows the sport, you should not be surprised.

The World of Outlaws have preference in terms of track prep and anyone whose familiar with the series in recent years knew it wasn't going to be Craig Dolansky setting track records fast. It hasn't been that way in quite some time. USAC was just going to get the leftovers.

The place is a dust bowl, its been said time & time again. If you chose to spend the money and go an watch more times than not you know what you're gonna get so quite frankly, I don't wanna hear it.

You can be up Eldora's rear end the same way I hear folks up north talk up Plymouth, but the fact remains the same. The tracks are going to be dry, slick and throw a lot of dust. If that's what you like, all the power to ya, I personally don't care for either track.

Eldora use to be MONEY. The World 100 (yes, its a late model race and I'm a hillbilly) use to be my favorite race on the schedule. 100 laps later they're still flippin clay in the stands. Unfortunately, Earl is long gone and him dumping calcium on the track or whatever other secrets he had have died with him.

The Eldora of 20 years ago is not the Eldora we have today. Today we have a track that banks on a NASCAR race. It is what it is.
