That was the worst track I have seen in a long time. Track was junk.
There was no grip from the bottom to the top. What a wasted night.
Never worked the track all night. I don't know who made that call but it was not the right one. You could see it coming. Track was a feature track for qualifying and it went down hill from there.
I have never seen a track so bad that it would not even take rubber.
Jiggs should have been at the gate handing back our money.

Now how the heck you have a junk track and have 19 cars top track record. I didnt go but now Im lost that makes no sense at all. Sounds smooth and fast. But what do I know I only love dirt track nd slicker the better. LOL.

As i have said in every post I have ever made about Gas City, worst racing surface in the U.S. on USAC night! I didn,t go last night, and will not go sprint week, Gas City gets a 0 on a scale of 1-10 for comfort and track prep!!

You did not miss much. Sure dry slick can be great with a little rubber down but that was a sad excuse of a track.
I have seen GC do that before. Look great early and go to sh*t from there. I did not see one happy fan leave that joint last night.
I love GC but that was something I hope I never see again.

Bright spot last night, I went to a Sprint Car race. Bad side of the night, getting there after Quals. because I got home from work late. Hard to believe the track could be so good then turn into what it was come feature time. I told my friend after the 1st heat that I hope it didn't turn into a huggy pole, well guess what, that is exactly what happened. I also couldn't believe they didn't rework the track. I have been there many times when the track looked better than it did last night and it was reworked. I figure there are two thoughts on reworking the track, 1) USAC didn't want them to 2) maybe they thought rain was on the way?????? At least I was able to attend some racing this weekend.
