Tonight was a good night at the grove. Good track. Great racing! Lucas Wolfe was on the Attack. Experienced racers got passed. Young racers got schooled. I enjoyed watching the show

Lucas took off the handlebar headers after hot laps and pulled off a part lap pass.
the 27 spins unassisted...the black 21 ran most of the race with a flapping right side panel...
apmost July and still no ice cream on the back stretch...had a kraut dog...
Lincoln 1845 ft/.35 mile T1=118MPH
Eldora 2287 ft/.43mile T3=135MPH
Port 2716 ft/.51 mile T3=TBD
Grove 2792 ft/.53 mile T3=135MPH
Selinsgrove 2847 ft/.54 mile T1=136MPH

Anyone other than me think Lucas races better in his own 5w than he does in the Zemco car?

I am not sure which car he runs better in or exactly who pays the bills for the 5w but I once heard a veteran who has a few hundred wins say that it is more fun to race with someone elses money.

That's why they are so clueless about how the fans feel about them killing a great Speedway. So tell me this then. Who is the tool or tools who bans people from commenting on their Facebook page if they talk about track prep or lack there of, a cancelation on a rather Sunny day, why food serve cold delivery pizza, or no soda at the food stand? They read social media. They can't be that stupid.

That track is losing so much on food sales because it's just not quality. Look at the lines for the food truck in the infield serving quality angus burgers when the big shows come around. The Grove should rebuild its concession stands, hire friendly people who care, and serve decent food. Their food sale losses would become gains soon enough.

If that's the case, then why doesn't Justin or Pinky do something about it? Those are the official social media accounts of the speedway. The person running them is causing damage to the speedways image. I know a lot of people who have been blocked. When you have a Facebook or Twitter account, you're going to have to listen to people complain from time to time and honestly, it wouldn't hurt them to listen a little bit because a lot of the things people complain about are real issues. They shouldn't get blocked for expressing displeasure as long as they don't go over the line and if the person running the account it is causing problems, take it out if their hands. Don't just sit there and let them drive people away like they are doing now.

Wizzard, not sure who you are but if you have a problem with Brent, I highly suggest that you stop this public attack and march your fat butt stuck behind a keyboard on over to his regular Grove camp sight and discuss it with him there - in person. Scardy cat!!!!! Brent has been a huge supporter of the Grove for more years than you can imagine. If Justin & Kathy don't have a problem with him - why do you??
Genuine butthead.

It's ok , This has nothing to do with Kathy or Justin. I haven't talked to either of them this year. Wizzard is the kind of person that I don't need to talk to. If I'd let him have it , he's the type that would sue me for knocking him out. LOL. It just disgusts me when a few people get on social media and complain about every little thing that happens at the track and no matter what they say , it does hurt attendance. I hear it lots of times from "on the fence " fans.

I wouldn't go there for dinner either, I like watching the races though. People act like dinners included with the show, just eat somewhere else and then show up. Wow.

No he's appendage impaired sitting behind a screen with a keyboard to hide is lacking anatomy. He doesn't understand the concept of what you mean. "just stay at home" means This is the United States of America. Free choice here dude. If I pay $14.00 to go to a baseball game and I don't like the way they keep the grounds, what they charge for my ice cold beer & hot dog - I have the choice of not going. So if you don't like spending $14.00 to go to the grove because the facility sux - you have the choice to not go. If you don't going to the grove and spending what they want for their food - do eat it; don't go. This is America - it's your choice.
There are those of us who like going, have liked going for over 20 years; but if we don't like going - We have the choice not to go.
Crawl back under the fence and go what polo. Maybe stumping on divets will make you feel better.

many stopped going to the grove over the last two seasons for reasons that only a goof could blame on a webpage...take a look at all the empty reserved seats that are now hosting interlopers...Beer Hill isnt even what it used to be.
what used to be a group of 10-15 in our section is down to 2 or 3 - the vast majority stopped buying reserved seats last year...and this year the remaining majority seldom turn up to use theirs - folks who used to go every week are not "on the fence" when they barely show up more than once or twice a year any more.
patronage is more generational now than it ever was...and some folks appear to require a generation to get a friggin clue!
