Interesting tweet from Rico abreu, team pulled out of the feature due to the track being less then ideal, I'm not watching or there, anyone have any insight as to what is wrong with it?

Track is real heavy even a bit slimy. A little choppy but have seen much worse. They started with 33 cars in the pits but almost all the Woo regulars pulled out. Kinsers and Shatz hot lapped then parked it. Lasoski and Rico qualified then parked it. So feature going forward with 21 cars. Give Bubba credit they could have just cancelled the event after all 3 nights got rained out but they scheduled 2 more nights.

Just wondering, do you own a car, and are you there? Maybe it's not worth tearing your equipment up on a track that's less than adequate.

If you are a WoO team why tear up your equipment when it basically has no gain? A few pulled out before even turning a lap. Risk vs reward.

Saw Dave Blaney got the win at Bubba Raceway Park in Ocala, Florida tonight. The old guy still got it. Great run for Dave and team.

Show paid $3k to win. Why would the elite teams take the chance of ruining their cars on that terrible track when they are used to running for $10k minimum? Not to mention they are not points chasing with ASCOC. Come on people, use your head...

While I understand why today's teams are doing it, can you imagine Ferkel or Scruffy or Oz or ... doing that? Just another way our world has changed.
