[TackyTracker]

[mcarter815]

gonna be a fun night.. guess the threat of late rain they moved up the show to 6:15I don't think the rain will be late. They are in the middle of a big band of scattered showers.

[wuss]

Anyone know what time gates will open then?

[joshroth14]

Bloomquist.... 200 points for fast time, 91 points for 4th in heat and 172 points for 15th in A-Main

Owens.... 198 points for 2nd quick time, 91 points for 4th in heat and 174 points for 14th in A-Main

Both had 463 points

[ptown]

Forecast calling for 100 percent chance of rain this evening.

[rickybrown1952]

How many transfer from the B-main

[smooth32]

Looks like they need to get it in before 9

[rickybrown1952]

Oh by the way I'm picking Sheppard

[huskerdirt]

Raining as I type this.

Might be a long night or a Sunday race.

[Clayton_Wetter]

Where did you hear that at? Owens was 14th and Scott didnt make it in

He's in row 6.

[Clayton_Wetter]

what's wrong with the Moyer's

Not slick enough. lol

[MUD MAESTRO]

Husker......whats the latest with the weather? I'm in Pella 10 miles away and no rain.

[Clayton_Wetter]

https://weather.com/weather/hourbyhour/l/50138:4:US OOOPS

Radar is looking pretty bad right now. More rain heading that way. One hour away. Fairly light. But another heavier one could hit later too.

[huskerdirt]

Husker......whats the latest with the weather? I'm in Pella 10 miles away and no rain.

Light sprinkle now. 50/50 on people going in and people just hanging out waiting to see what the weather is gonna do.

[MUD MAESTRO]

Light sprinkle now. 50/50 on people going in and people just hanging out waiting to see what the weather is gonna do.

Thanks Husker for the reply...

[ptown]

Radar looks like rain is moving out and they should be good to go.

[#FALSuperman]

100 laps...if caution free through lap 50, fuel stop on lap 51. Otherwise between lap 20 and 40 on a caution.

Congrats to Marlar on the win and thanks very much for the updates

[dirtdobber45]

Congrats to Marlar and crew.

[Finnfan]

Kudos to Mikey Marlar, one of the truly good guys in dirt late model racing today.

[IL LM Fan]

"B-Shep the latest victim with flat running 2nd....caused Francis to go into Hudson O'Neal"
This happened with 23 laps left and he finished 6th?

[#FALSuperman]

"B-Shep the latest victim with flat running 2nd....caused Francis to go into Hudson O'Neal"This happened with 23 laps left and he finished 6th? This is Correct!

[Trent B]

"B-Shep the latest victim with flat running 2nd....caused Francis to go into Hudson O'Neal" This happened with 23 laps left and he finished 6th? Sounds like JD pitted twice and still ended up 2nd. Poor Richards jumped the cushion with 5 to go lol

[IL LM Fan]

Impressive! On Race Monitor the restart with 5 laps left looked pretty crazy. A lot of position changes on that one.

[racingfool32]

WTG Winfield Warrior on your win.

[IceCowart]

He really not that good of a driver ol JD. They had to cheat. That 1 car team that almost won 3 crown jewels in a row.LMAO

[IL LM Fan]

Good point Trent. Pitted twice and still got second. That beats getting back to 6th in 23 laps I guess. I can't use the reply with quote feature for some reason. It just hangs and spins.

[#FALSuperman]

In the interview, JD said they had a plan to go high on restart, except he expected at least one of the guys in front of him to go high also. When they all tucked low on restart he just swooped around them. So, really smart racing by JD. Yes, he did pit twice. Made it up to 17th and pitted, went back to 22nd with like 42 to go or something like that.

[pierceFAN]

Kudos to Mikey Marlar, one of the truly good guys in dirt late model racing today.

I agree...couldn't happen to a nicer guy

[dirtcrazy4u]

This just in. Bloomee can't find his way home. Decides to ride off into sunset.

[Necrosis]

Good point Trent. Pitted twice and still got second. That beats getting back to 6th in 23 laps I guess. I can't use the reply with quote feature for some reason. It just hangs and spins.Click it twice.

[MUD MAESTRO]

Even after the delays thurs. and sat.......I enjoyed the whole weekend. Knoxville's 100 laps separates the men from the boys........ Such a demanding track to tame. Congrats to Mike Marlar and team. Richards, Landers and of course Davenport put on a terrific show.

[IL LM Fan]

Click it twice.

Ah. That was easy. Thanks!

[Illtsate32]

Touring series means you have the most $ not the most talent...

[Forward Bite]

A really great race. Josh sure put on a show to stay out front after the many restarts. Marlar can do things with a race that no one else can.

[Senroc-Systems]

A really great race. Josh sure put on a show to stay out front after the many restarts. Marlar can do things with a race car that no one else can.

Firstly, I fixed your post ( assuming you meant to insert the word car, after the word race, in the last sentence)

Secondly, that's a pretty bold statement. While I agree Marlar is quite the wheelman, saying he can "do what no one else can" might be a bit much.... He was in the right place at the right time at Knoxville. Without the misfortune of a couple other guys he was the third best car there..... as well as the third or fourth best Rocket. JMO.

[ptown]

A really great race. Josh sure put on a show to stay out front after the many restarts. Marlar can do things with a race that no one else can.

No it was an awful show, way too many cautions for any good racing.
