    Cleetus, the chick who was doing trash for the bleachers was there every 10 mins pulling bag after bag of garbage. She needs a gold star. It was a blessing watching people throw all their garbage away. And not leaving it.

Just because he wasn't freaking out running in circles and screaming and acting like a fool doesn't mean he doesn't appreciate it, it's not every day you get a facetime from Cleeter telling you that you won a truck...

    A lot like the "Factory Stock Enduro's" of the '90's. Generally they were 150 laps in two 75 laps segments, started on a watered down track, and turned right on one segment and left in the other. We had bigger V-8 motor's but tires were limited to 7" wide DOT tires with max 15"x7" wheels. Too much fun, especially with a torquey big block. One race I won at Saugus Speedway started with over 110 cars on a wet 1/3 mile asphalt flat track in a rain shower. Total mayhem, it still makes me smile!

    Gotta say I wouldn’t be shocked if people like Derek started pulling out of future races if something isn’t done about marshalling/driver control. He seemed pretty genuinely shaken up and for good reason, if a truck had plowed into his roof it could have been lights out. At some point it becomes not worth engaging just for the novelty and views when there are safer venues out there, especially for a guy that’s got mouths to feed.

    • @hoteltwonine5365
      @hoteltwonine5365 2 года назад +3

      I was thinking the same thing with the roof so exposed on its side. The comforting thing was that it look liked the racers listened in the drivers meeting and stopped as quickly and safely where they were at without going around for another lap once the REDFLAG came out.

    #22 Definitely gave Derek a pit... In the future Rangers should be lowered and be allowed to set up their front suspension specifically for circle track racing. That would make them handle better and make the race safer. You also might consider running two, 20-truck 20-lap heat races, with the top 10 of each going to a 40 lap main.

    I thought it was a great race but could add a few things.

    2. Whoever brings the caution (or red) flag goes to the back. Only fair that if they dumped someone, they pay for it.

      On the other hand, I don't particularly like heavy contact in motor racing, but I accept that there's going to be bumps and nudges here and there. What I really can't stand is people intentionally gaining an advantage from pushing others off the track. I know Levi's Rule 2 doesn't distinguish intentional hits from those unintentional, but that just makes it more consistent and virtually indisputable.

      @@hondaryderz a locked diff would be a disadvantage on an oval though. The wheel on the outside of the corner turns more times than the wheel on the inside of the corner, so if they were locked you'd lose traction. It's part of why oval tracks are actually able to have interesting races - take the inside line qnd you follow a shorter course, but go high and take the outside line and you can carry more speed. The drivers skill is in finding the right balance to the approach, the mechanics skill is in setting up the car optimally for the corner length and bank angle.
      That's why you'd want an LSD instead of lockers.
