Was not racing tonight. 

Perhaps back home for the Sterner race

Back in PA per Jeremy Elliot at SprintCar Unlimited.

He was never planning on being full time High Limit.

Thanks Longtime fan.

I was under impression that he was going to run that series.

I saw the schedule graphic the team put out. Aside from some trips to Eldora and Knoxville, it looked like they were running in and around PA for the most part.

It boils down to when there are good money races at home they will be here. There is quite a few good money races in Pa now thru May. When the money is elsewhere that is where they will be.

For the 100th time, for everyone not understanding the Outlaw's business plan, with nothing contractually binding them to the High Limit, there will be only a small handful of drivers who complete all races.  Don't get me wrong, both series have put on fantastic races----I have both Flo and DV.  But at the end of the day, nothing keeping cars on the HL tour all year.  (Unlike the utopia you were all imagining)

Well, he did win the Sterner Classic, at Lincoln.

Anthony ran at Lincoln yesterday

Yep, smart move by Macri winning $ 20,000 near home.  

He was in fine form

Anthony seems to be realizing what a lot of guys don't: you can make a great living racing in Central PA. You have the luxury of working out of your own shop all the time and sleeping in your own bed most if not every night. Plus you have 3 of the best tracks anywhere racing weekly plus lots of specials at other area tracks. Freddie Rahmer banked a good bit of money last year and never traveled more than 2 or 3 hours from home. Our tracks have really stepped up their purses in recent years and they deserve to be supported for it. I get the allure of being an outlaw and traveling but for a dude with a family who wants to have a life outside of racing, Central PA is where it's at. You can race 80+ nights a year within a couple hours of home for good money and still make it to most of the kids baseball games. 

As of today, Macri is third in the country in money won with $81,725 only trailing Gravel $91,000 and Courtney $90,500. Not too bad.

I wonder when/if other teams move into PA to run weekly like the old days? I'd really like to see that. Probably not feasible anymore.

Agree, nice start to the year for Macri.

I noticed Eliason is 24th with $ 29,000...just an observation.

Don't expect a reply he knows he's dead in the water with that stupid comparison he's claiming Dirtvision saved the Woo now.
