Now you're complaining about LPS being too dry.
3 minutes after starting this thread you found your old username & password, logged in and replied to a different thread.
You've went back forth between old and new accounts all night.
Now, none of that info is really that important but I wanted to say thank you for making me laugh tonight.
Well I really don't know any of the main people involved in this conversation but I know Bill is the administrator and it looks like he caught someone with their pants down! I thought the whole thread was pretty funny until I got to the administrator's comment and then it went immediately to hilarious!
That is what administrators are for. Great job Bill!

I figured it out when he posted as Wideopen 42 on this thread then wide open 24 on another but didn't say anything.
As to his point, I do know there are many not posting much due to taking things as personal attacks rather than differing views. People need to sit back, re-read what someone said and try to interpret the meaning before taking it personal
Honestly, Im not a big slicky track fan myself but one of the best races i've seen at LPS was on about the slickest, slowest tracks they ever had. Sprintweek about three years ago when Stanbrough started fourth, dropped to eighth and grabbed the win on the last lap. Up till that point it was Shu on the bottom in the 4 and I can't remember on top pretty much side by side. One catfishin, the other banging the cushion. Stanbrough split em. Shu Broke but Jon still came from deep in very little time.
My thing about the track condition is like this I have no clue how to prepare a track and Kudos to anybody that does. Because even if it doesn't turn out great everytime they are still giving it there all and trying to do a good job. Plus the drivers just got to learn how to adapt and over come and the person who does that the best usually win's.

Hoosier Fan beat me on the draw ( not pill draw). I have limited my race chasing to a few select pavement races and LPS.... Why LPS? 1) highest weekly car count in sprint division 2) most comfortable seating ( the sun setting behind you and the shade for the evening is great) 3) track prep under new promoter
Would give a shout out to Dave at L'burg who also does a great job, just LPS is closer for me.

I've been to many tracks in Indiana and none got to black slick conditions after the heat races theres obviously something or a step that's not being done. I think if something doesn't get fixed with the track we may start losing teams and drivers to other tracks. So let's hope Joe Spiker does something different this weekend!!! And I've been to every race at LPS this year the first couple races track conditions were great and fans the last couple races are not impressed with follow the leader style!!!
Hey it could be worse... you could be right in the heart of wing country here in Central PA. Wanna trade?

Yeah any time there is a cushion that builds they either bring out the grader or run the push trucks around to knock it down. Some don't know how good they have it.

I echo the above sentiment.We are driver and sprint car fans first,race track fans second..As long as they have pickles&onions,what more could you want
shards of wet clay on that burger along with the pickles n onions as opposed to dust/ dust makes me sneeze and gawd only knows how many pickles n onions I've lost in a sneeze-fest
I have been to 11 shows this year and the best races, ones to remember, have all been at LPS. All tracks are too slick for my taste, I like CA tacky, but it's Indiana and that is the way they seem to turn out here. LPS is doing just fine.
