The Grove & Lincoln could really take some tips from the All Stars & The WOO's with their usage of a few small 4-wheelers & a few side by sides that are capable of restarting cars involved or who create yellow flags. Between watching Gas City & Attica when the yellow appeared the involved cars were back under way in 2 laps or less. It just helps to move the show along & would also result in less laps under yellow burning precious fuel. Just saying. The Grove had about 8 yellows before 1/2 way which resulted in a fuel stop. Lincoln was ridiculous last night too in the 358 feature which resulted in a fuel stop. 2 of each at both ends of the track is not that big of an investment along with a couple of responsable riders who would love to be the pilots!

One thing I can assure you is that you are going to be in the shithouse for saying that anything about Lincoln is less that perfect.

Oh well, we know the SHIT HOUSE will always be crowded if that's the case! If you want to run your NEW business to please your customers in a less time consuming manner not only for the patrons, but also for the competitors read & comprehend what your patrons suggest. When it starts to get late in the evening & your race track is as slick as a cat's ass you are going to have numerous yellow flags just like Saturday night. I can only recall 2 or 3 fuel stops for a 20 lap 358 feature.
Certainly it would please all involved to attempt to clean up your overall program.
Biggest failure so far was the placement of the screen. Why was it not placed beyond the backstretch guardrails or placed at least 10 feet higher so it doesn't blot out the fan's view?
The place has so much more potential, but helping to speed up the program is certainly a positive idea. If not for Neil Smith's wreckers the situation would be a lot worse.
Come on Jerry, Gobe, Mike & Alan.
I know you guys can do better

again i guess it's understood the grove is way worse when it comes to pace of play than any other track.
i'm willing to wait a little longer for the racing product at lincoln too. it's just better...but then again i'm a short track guy.
watching monaco made it clear that it's the history of the grove that keeps it alive. they briefly mentioned during the f1 broadcast about drivers wanting monaco changed. i wouldn't want that. something about zipping through those streets is amazing even if the chances of passing are almost zero. the grove might do better cutting back weekly racing. it rains out most of the time anyway.

You act like this is your first time at lincoln since the new owners have taken over. Look at who the owners are, do you think they give a crap about what you think? Yep, that big screen has been there since last year, beat that horse already.

The big screen was an incredibly stupid idea. Why the hell would you put it where it blocks the view for the fans? Why do you even need one in the first place? I see BAPS also has 1 now.
