This is fun to watch. I haven't paid attention but it seems like a lot of drivers/teams are showing up

Only 31 cars entered tonight at Tri-City. It will be interesting to see what kind of crowd they have.

I've been getting that message on other events. I've found that if you go back to the menu and select the event again it will load properly.

I can't get it on my TV no matter what I do. I do have it on my laptop though. Not sure why... truth be told I probably won't be renewing with Flo. I'm just not all that impressed with it.

How many cars were you expecting? I figured 30-35 at these events on average

They should rename it, the kyle larson series. I guess the $$$ from the platinum deal is far greater to take the chance of piss in the woo officials off. All is good, it gives guys a chance to make some decent money knowing that they may have a chance of making the A main.

I can't believe Larson wouldn't have taken the 11 on the dice roll and was hesitant on the 8. He is going to win half of the races in the series and win the points. If the WoO was allowed to run he probably wouldn't run with as many races but currently only a small handful eaxh race is capable of beating him. Also car counts could dwindle if he continually takes the top prize money home each week.

Lot of attrition at the front. There are many good racers that are showing up even with out WOO regulars but Kyle could start last and make it interesting. He might not win but make it more fun to watch.Rico looked very fast but faded and Danny would have been tough had He not broke. Dont know if its profitable to have higher purses for mid week races but appauld Brad and Kyle for trying to help sprint car racing.

I don't disagree and DD looked really good before the mechanical failure. There is no denying though that when the Outlaws go anywhere they typically are top dog even on unfamiliar tracks. Whenever the Allstars are off and all of them come to a WoO race rarely do you see them win. Not saying it isn't possible and Courtney being more of the outlier but by and large Gravel Macedo Sweet Donny either of Shark racing and Sheldon are going to be right there for the win. Gio and Bayston can be just as good too. Guessing at least half of those I mentioned if they raced last night would have been in the dash.

Yea if he isn't going to take it why would they think someone else will. They might as well get rid of that gimmick.As far as him winning so many I said all along if he wins too many of them car count counts will drop. Even the one where Macri outdrove him for the win he whined about the problems that caused him to lose.

kyle larson starting a series so more teams have a shot at bigger purses...but then kyle larson winning those bigger purses...seems to defeat the whole purpose. especially after he won $1 million at north wilkesboro. i'm not sure i know a way around it. he draws a crowd so everyone wants him racing. it would be awkward to win and then give the money to 2nd place. i wouldn't expect him to half ass it so somebody else can win.
tricky situation.

But not as tricky as him making officiating decisions in a race he is competing in...that can't happen again ever.

Yeah, I can't believe there isn't more controversy about that one. I'm a big Rico fan but that was BS. I guess there's two ways to make the dash - finish in the top two or be a friend of Kyle. Disappointed with the series, and disappointed with Rico for not owning the mistake.

He should be starting from the back and spreading his winnings to the back half of the field.

There was a lot of controversy on social media about it. It certainly was a bad look and if anything they could have put Rico as the 9th car in the dash. Last night with the smallish car count, the ridiculous officiating and Larson winning again was the first bad night theyve had as a series.
