It was hard for the guy getting the cars in line on the track while he was holding a walkie talkie in one hand and the flag in the other. As said before, get a chalk board. At least an additional 15 -18 laps during the feature trying to get the correct lineup. Not complaining at all, just an observation. Sitting in the sun, hearing race cars and smelling racing fuel after a long winter was AWESOME. I think we just have to give them a little time to get things straight and I will definitely drive down from Kokomo again. See you at Eldora.

i agree but if they say thats the rule then , when in rome you do as the romans do. They also have a rule that says if you take the green and cars crash before the first lap is in the book then the cars can restart back in their original spot. so if you don't get a good start you can pull up and stop then get your spot back on the restart ! I beleive there were a few scoring problems too , some cars that finished in top ten only got there because of a gift from scoring. Hope they get their act together before the big show on the 3rd.

First of all, I would like to thank all the Drivers, Pit crew and Fans for attending last night at Twin Cities.
As for the red flag issues, our track rules state that if a car goes pit side under red, that car may return to the track and receive his/her spot back if they return under red. That is why Riggs received his spot back. As for Boesflug, he went pit side under red but returned under yellow. That is why he did not receive his spot back.
And after further thought I do understand the advantages and disadvantages of this rule. Therefore before the "NO WAY OUT 40" there will be some rule changes that will be geared towards the Sprint cars. RACECIEVERS will be MANDATORY for the "NO WAY OUT 40" on April 3rd.
And to Bobby East..... I apologize for the lengthy cautions that may have caused him to run out of fuel.
Hopefully the changes we will make will help for a better show on
April 3rd with the "NO WAY OUT 40". We appreciate our fans and drivers and want to do our best to make improvements for everyone!

Thanks from a fans viewpoint that you came on here, explained how the rules worked and showed a willingness to adjust those rules for a completely different class of cars than what you normally run. At least you are trying..
