Watching on Flo. Track isn't just "bumpy". They keep calling it "cowboy up". This is embarrassing. Seriously. At what point do they end this insanity and save car owners a few bucks. They haven't been able to get in a single lap in five attempts now. One at a time all the cars are going to get totalled. They may be in it for $10,000, but there's no way the total purse will come close to making up for the damage the track is causing.

Never watched a sprint car demo derby before.

Sometimes drivers need to "race the track". They got their asses handed to them by a 14 year old who didn't seem to have any problems with the track...

Pretty painful to watch on Flo.  I eventually turned it off and went to bed...

they had the same track conditions at Lake Ozark back when the WoO was there, but it had rained for several days prior to that race being held, what was the excuse here, the All Stars have a 2 day show there in July, we were considering attending, but not so sure about going now, hopefully they can figure out how to prepare a smooth racing surface, I wanna see drivers going hard at it for the win with maximum effort being made, not tiptoe their way to victory, seeing someone win a race due to the misfortune of their fellow competitors doesn't impress me at all.

as for the kid who won last night at Lake Ozark, the state of Oklahoma has produced some heavy hitters over the years, Shane Carson, Andy Hillenburg, Daryn Pittman, Shane Stewart all had successful stints with the World of Outlaws, (Brady Bacon went the non wing route and has won multiple USAC championships), will that young man who won last night at Lake Ozark be next , you just never know, cause I remember hearing about a 13 years old Oklahoma kid name Trey Robb kicking the behinds of the veterans at the old Okie City Fairgrounds track, everyone thought he would one day be a top dog with the Outlaws, but unfortunately it didn't happen for him, the one I'm pulling for from Oklahoma to one day be an Outlaw superstar is Harli White.

Would love to see Harli at least back on the ASCS tour.

The second time they completely junked a race car in turn three a tracked skid loader someone showed up and in a matter of minutes and appeared to fix the biggest issue on that end. No one violently crashed on that end after that.

Why didn't they have the skid loader out fixing the junk track when they were clearing all the bent up cars before that.  Wouldn't have taken any longer to run the show. Guess it wasn't their money being sucked out of their pockets repairing all the torn up cars.

Did anyone else catch that push truck driver completely drive over and junk the right side of that car?

Oh yes he did have problems with the track.   He just got lucky, but he damn near flipped a couple of times himself.   That track was awful.

I had been busy alll weekend with my sons soccer tournament, and decided that I was going to leave at intermission.   LOS has a history of long intermissions, and I did not want to sit through another one as I still had a couple hour drive to do to get home.      When I was leaving, they were going to the track with the farming equipment.    My assumption that it was going to take them a good hour to get the track back in order.   My question is how long did they acutally work the track at intermission?  In watching the highlights of the A main, it looked liked turns 1 and 2 were still just as rough as before the intermission.   

Also, I told myself when the ASCS B main rolled out that I would stick around until the first red flag.   Much to my surprise after one failed start, the race when green to checkered.  I was completely shocked and amazed that the drivers in the B main were able to do this.  

Finally,  for all of the fans that complain when a track will cancel a race because of too much rain during the week, please keep this race night in mind.   When the track is super soft,  chances are you are going to get a track of this caliber.
