Full of the wet stuff and the front tire is flat.  This is fascinating to watch

They did a pretty good job getting it off the track.

Just exactly how hard to you have to drive a truck to abuse a tire on a flat smooth dirt surface such as a racetrack?


Even though I may not know you, I 
care what most of you think!

Well there are rocks in that asphalt surface. Don't ask management they would say no rocks are in the surface.

However, I know at least 3 drivers that would tell you different.  Two have missed time racing because of it.

Maybe you should talk to their friends or families about what happened. You might get some parts rearranged for your comments.

What I said is the truth.  If that makes you or anyone angry that is just to bad.

The only thing that makes me angry is you are not telling the truth as you always put it. You two guys made some incorrect and out of line comments on this when it first happened. We hadn't heard from either of you in a while so thought maybe you both got kicked off here for that.

Please do talk to the 2 Sprint drivers this weekend. One missed the following weekend of the allstars and the other was checked for a concussion.

One could only hope that happened.  Guess he/she/they were on vacation.  Now we can all look forward to their spite and hate towards one track in PA.

Off topic but Port Royal related. Port was supposed to have a 3 day show for LucasOil late models that was supposed to pay a total purse of $231k. They cancelled the last day so they didn't pay that out, but I saw an advertisement that the Tusky 50 weekend purse is $215k. 

On what planet should a late model race in Central Pa pay more in total purse than the 2nd biggest sprint car race in Central PA? The crowds for the 3 day sprint show will be much larger than the lms. I know part of it is the lousy All Star base purse, but give me a break.

Lucas Oil Late Models are considered the 5 star series. I am curious as if they incorporated the sanction fee in to the overall purse?  Late models in this area in the 70's & 80's were considered a hot bed of stars & cars. To each their own in preference of race cars.

All Stars are considered a 4 star series by some. 

Does it really matter about 16K difference?

I am not sure if the total purses included support divisions. If they do there is no support division  for the night of the Tuscarora Fifty and 305's on Thursday which is almost nothing.

Believe it or not,  there is quite the fan base for late models in PA sprint car country. I know sprint car fans that turned to late model racing because they like seeing cars pass each other. Late models probably bring more cars to larger events. Yeah, you're complaning about 16k over a 3 day show, I know you are smart enough to do the math, is it that big of a deal or are you just bored?

Straight shooter hit the bullseye.

Which drivers were they? Don't they run rock screens on sprint cars in PA?
