Man, been a long time since I've seen 4 heats as good as last night. Feature was fun to watch Tmez "whoop ass", but I really didn't care for the new double wide restarts. Just seemed to me a couple times guys lost spots they had worked hard to get.

I think this is a MSCS policy. Not to fond of it myself, dont think it is really needed in nonwing sprints.

Heats were fantastic, but the program was too long. I feel the double wide restarts contributed to a lot of the cautions. Hope they rethink this rule. Glad to see every one for another season of racing at LPS and what a great turnout of fans.
A long night at the track can be expected to happen a few times a season when you attend races every weekend, so I am not complaining too loudly. But, as I said above, I don't think the double wide restarts are a good idea.

PS.....I think turn one issues, big car count , fireworks and FOUR classes accounted for the long night issues. Dang Ron you passed me double file about the I64 line on way home!

I wasn't there, But the times I've seen double file restarts for NW sprints, It either accomplished one of two things. Added a ton of more cautions because of the cars being bunched up. Or totally screwed one row or the other (Tracks all on the cush so outside takes off and inside loses several or it's Huggy Pole and the outside is screwed)
That being said, I think it helps winged racing.

I seen a good races last night and had a great time. My Father, Uncle and good friend Mike had a ball and was home by 11. My uncle can't travel as he has to be close to home for his wife if needed.
