Team
Is that the same "EARL" that used to get so many coments about how dry and dusty he ran his race track, something about the fans couldn't see the race cars. Nobody is perfect, had God not wanted smooth race tracks he probably wouldn't have ever invented "PAVEMENT". "Salem In." excluded. ![]() PS. Just keeping on post, Sean's video made it look almost like 4 wheel Moto X. Honest Dad himself ![]() ![]()

Love L'burg, but gotta agree with Mr Short. The "Ramp" getting into 3 has been there for the last 2 years and looks worse this year. Needs a good work over on corner entry at both ends to smooth out the transitions.

That ramp has claimed a lot of cars . Can't believe its not fixed yet but hey the track is pretty to look at from the stands . Isn't that all that matters

Agree, Dave and crew work there asses off on the track. It still amazes me how many people ***** about a track after they watch a great night of racing. Great camera work Jackslash! Thanks

Stayed completely out of it till now and am still going to do so. Thats between a team and the track.
However, I seen a grandstand full of people standing and cheering for the last three laps. I have one question, Was the track raceable? Or should it have been cancelled? It rained up till 3pm friday after getting over 3 inches of rain. I had three newbies in my area that I knew of. They all said it was awesome. I've seen pics of cars running three and four wide with captions of Pick a groove, Any Groove. Have a nice day, both the teams and the track have my respect I won't deny that sometimes there are rifts or dips and there were.. Honestly perfect tracks and one groove racing woulnd't bring too many fans to the track, Want evidence? I witnessed many a night on the old track with same facilities with less than 300 in the stands with 35 car fields and catfish racing and USAC races had maybe 1500. That was more like 5000 fans, many who came back because of awesome shows like that.

Some pumps in the fairgrounds supply the city with water, other pumps can remove seep water from the fairgrounds.
