I have no idea what you are talking about. There is nothing negative to be said about that show. MOWA's portion was great as well as the other classes and the track prep.

dont get me wrong it was a good night of racing over all. and the car count was good. I was referring to the drivers who you don't see run with them more often. It is because of the way MOWA runs the show. Running 10 cars in a heat When you have that car count??!!.....dumb. Makes more sense to run a 4th heat. Great racing in the feature With one caution coming at lap 19 so you leave lap traffic in between the leaders?!!!!........even worse!! there are many good drivers in the midwest that don't run with MOWA very often. There are aome good drivers that run with MOWA but there are some guys who stay away who are very good as well. I am saying it could be much better. It was a good race though. Always like seeing them run at Pevely.

you are right. I -55 did a good job and the other classes were great as well. Very entertaining racing. Just the sprints could have been better.

Who are these best cars in the area that choose not to run with them because of the way they run the show? We're anxious to hear?

No 6-7 car heat races????? Making everybody work as hard as the leader did to pass a lapped car??? How dare they do things the way us long time sprintcar fans used to love?
Loose is when you hit the wall with the rear of the
car, tight is when you hit the wall with the front of
the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and
torque is how far you move the wall.

Lol do you truley believe you have the "best" drivers in the Midwest that run with you fulltime?? Most of your drivers are from IL but some good ones. I am from the MO side so I have a few options to watch sprint cars every weekend. Other than Jared Hull and Jimmy Hurley I have never seen one of your FULL time drivers win anything. I have seen a few finish well(bruns, mohaugn, etc) but never win. How many times does a random driver that will stop at maybe one or two of your shows win?? Quite often I would think. The other drivers I speak of are the ones when your drivers go to other local tracks when not with MOWA and get spanked. Farmington is a prime example.(yes shit track with a tard for an owner) but they run sprint cars full time which is nice. I make the drive down south from STL multiple times a year to watch and a few locals at that track consistantly dominate your "best" in the midwest. So now ask yourself why dont some of these other cars come to our shows?? Just saying. Obviously most of these people comenting are friends or affiliated with MOWA. And my intenet is not to piss anyone off. I would like to see MOWA become bigger and better. We need MOWA and I would like to see you in MO as much as IL. But now that I have your attention. First, time your cars in. Pill draws suck. Group time, one at a time doesnt matter but time them in. Next if you have over 28 cars run 4 heats. Guys race harder as the night goes on. So load a dash with 8 fast cars not a heat. Last get your lap cars out of the way so the leaders can race. The other night the leaders where high and lap traffic low. Restart on lap 19 May was able to get into clean air and run away with it(not that he was going to be caught that night) but second place car caught in lap traffic but so was May when caution flew. Just some thoughts. I will continue to come to your shows some because I love sprint car racing but when giving the choice I pick another track over your shows. Just a comment(opinion) from a paying non racing customer.
