Ive been coming to Riverside since the late 70s, and it never dissapoints. I remember seeing Kinser, Wolfgang,Sammy,Rick Ferkel and many more wheel there cars in that gumbo and it was awesome then as it is now with these young guns!!
Corey “the kid” Day shows them how you run at “the Ditch.” That’s the way “Slammin Sammy” Swindell used to run there when he was Day’s age. Awesome job 14! 👍✌️
Corey Day has arrived! He handled that lapped traffic like someone with much more experience. Very impressive run by Tanner Thorsen also. Too bad for Kyle. He was driving the wheels off that car. Fantastic turnout of fans! It's a shame that more HL shows don't have a great turnout. They have a stout field of cars.
Good race ! Corey Day is going to win the HL championship. I know theres lots of racing to go yet.But feet to the fire for a pick ill take The #14 car crew and driver. These bullrings are their forte. 🏁 🏁
I was at a little track called Grayson county speedway helping a friend with his IMCA stock car. He started dead last and as I was putting his window net up I said just bring the steering wheel back and he flipped the car with 3 to go. I felt like such a dickhead for that comment as he was rolling out 🤦
@@darrellwhite3261 Lol that sucks. There are some things ya just don't need to say. I know that pro golfers and their caddies, they never say, "Whatever you do, don't hit it (location)" because, Duh. Nobody needs to be told that, so just don't even say it. Same thing here lol.
The fence was too short and weak. It would have only taken 2 cars touching wheels at the wrong time. It's a miracle a car hasn't landed in the stands yet. The track promoter clearly knows the fence isn't nowhere near good enough.
Thought it was weird that they didnt scrape the walls between races. Also, I'm not a structural engineer but placing the fencing on the outside of the poles instead of the inside no longer makes it a catch fence to keep the cars in the track but more of a fly through fence. Good race though, interesting track. I guess Day was the Lion and Thorson was the sheep
I picked him to win. Hated seeing him get into the wall. I was sitting at the end of the front stretch just before turn one. I had a close up look. I really thought after the way he checked out in his heat race that he would be a handful in the feature, but wasn't to be. I figured it would be Tim, Sunshine, Thorsen, Day or Larson. Cory was just too much around the top at the end of the night.
The wrench on#14 and the driver are on the same page. Set up was just loose enough to turn without a glowing rotor. Driver used the throttle drove with his mind. Jason Myers told me you have to listen to your driver.
That was a great race despite the track conditions caused by the water table being higher than Tyler Walker. I hope they can build a real fence so High Limit and the Outlaws can continue to race there.
What a good lesson in why people should not stand near the fence. I don't want to be standing there when we find out if it's strong enough to catch a car!
@@Boneshaker420well it’s probably the biggest takeaway from this event personally If I were in charge I wouldn’t come back to this track until something got done about it because it is an accident waiting to happen
No High Limit races until next Wednesday so we will probably see a majority of the HL drivers at Knoxville this Friday and Saturday in the sanctioned World of Outlaws events.
@curtishoke143 actually a smart thing to do for Anthony Macri to stay home this weekend with the Port Royal Speedway race paying $15,000 to win. Macri went back to PA last weekend and picked up the $20,000 to win Lincoln Speedway race and he more than likely wins that $15,000 this Saturday at Port Royal. This is easy money for Macri instead of going to Knoxville for two $12,000 to win races that he wouldn't have won either with all of the heavy top level competition that will be at Knoxville this week with the Outlaws and HL drivers. Macri does plan on racing outside of PA when PA doesn't have big money races. As far as the other PA Posse they don't stand any chance of much success outside of PA. Basically for PA drivers currently, Marks, Schuchart and Macri is all that PA has for competitive drivers when they race outside of PA.
What safety fence. I see chicken wire. This is the 60's safety. The amount of dollars forked out to get in a see these guys and they dont give a rats ass about anyones safety. Disgusting.
Yeah, this is an accident waiting to happen. It might kill someone next week, or it might never happen, but I certainly wouldn’t be sitting low in the grandstands.
Been a Larson fan since he swept the 4 crown Nationals and im not gonna lie. Its tough watching him struggle like he has been. He actually is human after all.
@@shawntaylor4415 I've never worked construction but i sure bitch about potholes. Never been CEO of my cable company but I've been known to bitch about my bill being too high too.
@@MiamiMallAlienSeems like fans really love this track. IMHO, that should be all the more reason to get a real fence. I would hate to see a good track get shut down over something completely preventable.
"Your fences need to be horse-high, bull-strong & pig-tight" Old Rancer And this dump's, I mean ditch's playground enclosure ain't. Shame on KL & BS, who tout safety in their series, for even considering a visit to this joint...a place which Mr. Carter & Co. avoid like the bubonic plague for this blatantly obvious reason.
WoO last visited this "place" on 4/20/18, a period of 6 YEARS ago. Hoping that Mr. Carter sees the debacle last night & reschedules Oct. event @ another track.
@@GospelGaryI don't think he will because he knows it's one of the best little bullrings in the country. And I think they can put a new catch fence on by October. Outlaws been racing here since 1979, so seems to me that Mr. Carter likes coming to this track because he keeps putting it on the schedule...
B@@billkemp6017Brian Carter is a very astute businessman, and hopefully, with what happened last night and Carter's influence/pressure/whatever, it will indeed come to pass that there is a more secure catch fence in place come the WoO event in Fall. Thankfully nobody got hurt.
This isn't minor league, Brad Sweet won the past 5 outlaw points championships, Tyler Courtney, Brent Marks, and James McFadden have won major events, the top teams are split right now between the two streaming service's which are Dirtvision who broadcasts the outlaws and FloRacing who broadcast High Limit
At some of the major events like the Kings Royal, Knoxville Nationals, Husets speedway's high banked nationals ect you will see teams from both tours there. Currently the outlaws only allow their teams to run a select amount of other races, high limit teams can run wherever they want.
@taterkuhn5048 What do you know about a bad track surface? My question is have you ever been to the ditch and also what made that a “bad track surface?” Just curious…
Try watching the race above in this video because there was no bad racing surface at all. Racing from top to bottom AND passing. You watched one video and commented on another. Just because the leader stays in the lead most of the race does not mean there was no passing. I know you are looking forward to the 140mph no passing zone this coming weekend at Knoxville.
It's a shame there's not a real fence because this is a badass little joint. I will be sitting up as high as possible for the outlaw show😂
Indeed can't help thinking its to keep people off the track and not to keep the cars in
I've said it once and I'll say it again. Corey Day is the best young driver in sprint cars, regardless of series.
Was at over half of the Narc Races last year , Corey Day is going places !!!
It's pretty amazing when even the other drivers talk about Corey , even veteran drivers say the same as you just did .
He has so much maturity behind the wheel for being a young driver.
Ive been coming to Riverside since the late 70s, and it never dissapoints. I remember seeing Kinser, Wolfgang,Sammy,Rick Ferkel and many more wheel there cars in that gumbo and it was awesome then as it is now with these young guns!!
Corey vs Sunshine is the best racing I've seen in years .
Corey “the kid” Day shows them how you run at “the Ditch.” That’s the way “Slammin Sammy” Swindell used to run there when he was Day’s age. Awesome job 14! 👍✌️
Good night for Day . What a Rowdy race . Thx Flo
Clovis California native takes home the win. California boys showing everyone how it's done 💯💯💯
Great run Thorson! Feel like he’s gonna get one or two wins this year

"Please don't tear my fence down." Probably not the best thing to bring up after showing how easily it can be torn down, but what do I know?

haha real
There is no excuse for a catch fence breaking like that,that needs to be taken care of before a tragedy happens.
Exactly my thoughts too!
The fence was too short and weak. It would have only taken 2 cars touching wheels at the wrong time. It's a miracle a car hasn't landed in the stands yet. The track promoter clearly knows the fence isn't nowhere near good enough.
They gotta get a new fence. I wouldn't attend a race there. Crazy.
Chicken Coup Wire 🐓🐓🐓
Not a fence, but mosquito (Knoxville Moth) netting....
Thought it was weird that they didnt scrape the walls between races. Also, I'm not a structural engineer but placing the fencing on the outside of the poles instead of the inside no longer makes it a catch fence to keep the cars in the track but more of a fly through fence. Good race though, interesting track. I guess Day was the Lion and Thorson was the sheep
They scraped the walls after each race, but with a gumbo track, they fill back in within 5 laps
Love Tim Crawley. A beast when I-30 in Little Rock was open
I picked him to win. Hated seeing him get into the wall. I was sitting at the end of the front stretch just before turn one. I had a close up look. I really thought after the way he checked out in his heat race that he would be a handful in the feature, but wasn't to be. I figured it would be Tim, Sunshine, Thorsen, Day or Larson.

@@scottrussell2281 yeah i was hoping hed pull it off over these WOO guys
I love going to this race track!!!! So much my dad racing here and it’s so fun!!
Corey day is looking like a bad mofo I tell you
much like his Dad, back in the day.
He is...
Justin’s talking about safety today for sure
Called it
great race thanks flo
What is up with larson riding the struggle bus lately?
And Rico
Everyone goes through spells where they just aren’t finishing up front. Steve Kinser, Sammy Swindell, EVERYONE experiences spells like this.
It's almost as if he is human like you and I.. Maybe that's it.
The reality of racing in top levels, or any level for that matter. Hit rough patches
I hated seeing Tim Crawley wreck. He's such a great guy. Actually Kyle too.
That might be the worst catch fence I’ve seen! Needs to be replaced before a car goes into the stands.
Riverside is ghetto 😂
I was at that race last night, was really fun ngl, 88 was dive bombing the inside in the a main
The wrench on#14 and the driver are on the same page. Set up was just loose enough to turn without a glowing rotor. Driver used the throttle drove with his mind. Jason Myers told me you have to listen to your driver.
3:55 Don't feel too bad Tim Crawley, Kyle Larson also "stepped on it" 😂
This is hard to do lose more than win ! Even the best have bad days .😮
I grew there its gotten so many. Right out in the parking lot
Cory looking 👌 dam good
That was a great race despite the track conditions caused by the water table being higher than Tyler Walker. I hope they can build a real fence so High Limit and the Outlaws can continue to race there.
What a good lesson in why people should not stand near the fence. I don't want to be standing there when we find out if it's strong enough to catch a car!
Crawleys awnser for what Happened is absolutely legendary , especially for nowadays with kids puttin the blame on everything an everyone they can 😂
I have a fence like that to keep the deer out of my garden.
Where'd they buy it ... Walmart garden section ... ???
So funny! Wow! I bet it took you a while to think of that! smfh!
Rico is having a tough start this year.
Before the race, during qualifying I said that fence isn’t tall enough, turns out is even less strong
LFG C-Day, another one bites the dust!
That fence is not even close to strong enough for these machines.
Anyone else think we learned more about fixing fences tonight than we did about racing?
Tri city speedway in St Louis is same way. Id be scared if a car ever went into the fence. No reinforcement and their fencing is old.
Larson has completely lost composure behind the wheel of a sprint car.
50/50 grind to tail block! #57
I'd say too much traction for several tonight, but an awesome track for first time viewing of me.
why is there a tree right where the fence broke???? like come on man that's gonna hurt when u hit it
The track itself is amazing. Really technical and fast. Everything else around the racing surface needs work.
Need steel cables on that fence asap !!!
Clearly a lot of tracks in the USA are not up to sprintcar safety standards … that safety fence is a joke
As good of races that they had at that awesome little bullring last night, is that what your gonna bitch about is that fence. Wow, smdh!
Do everybody a favor, when the Outlaws come in October stay home!
@@billkemp6017 ouch truth hurts
Compared to Australian tracks, your tracks are a bloody disgrace and are a tragedy waiting to happen
Gotta give Larson credit, I didn't think a 410 would sit like that,😂
I'm no fence expert, but can't see that fence behind strong enough to keep a car from going into the stands. I hope I'm wrong though
Wow. That fence is damn near useless. Impressive!
As good of a races that we saw all evening, is that all you got to talk about is the fence. Enjoy the racing and quit crying!
@@billkemp6017 amen. That's all people are crying about 😂

I usually defend tracks but yeah that's inexcusable. Could result fatalities in the stands just keeping it 100% real

High side hiccup for Larson,and that fence is questionable.
Man there are some downright unsafe dirt tracks in the USA. That would NEVER happen in Australia. Scary.
That fence is hillbilly af 😂
Great race!! Good run for Funky Cole Macedo 🏁💪
I noticed he us only good on small tracks and. It so good on big tracks
When it's your Day...
It's your day...
A big insurance claim was waiting to happen. Horrible liability situation at this dangerous track.
Sounds like something a snowflake would say 😂

A catching fence is supposed to, well, catch.
mr perfect larson wrecked wow
Gonna be tough to beat a Cali driver in a bull ring. Day is something…
Beansprout planted that
#57.
Everyone is always saying they worry about Larson, they should be worried about DAY. Because him and that team are a fucking problem rn! 🤙🏼💯
Chicken wire fence
Low low wall with a chain link fence….yikes…lucky someone did not get seriously hurt.
My dog fence is stronger than that!
Been a Larson fan since he swept the 4 crown Nationals and im not gonna lie. Its tough watching him struggle like he has been. He actually is human after all.
I just want to know how many people making hate comments are drivers and or have actually raced the ditch??
None never raced there.i can bet the shit talkers can even turn the fuel on, much less turn it off during a flip

Sprint cars will climb a real catch fence. This set up has to be fixed
They need a new track crew, that was rough and rutted.
This just simply is not a race track for 410’s. What a joke
Best for radio controlled trucks until they fix safety issues.
What's funny is to you probably have never been there and you just sit at home on the keyboard or phone and talk shit.
