[Snake X3]

JD had Group A and fastest time overall in qualifying. No real surprises. Richards fastest in Group B. I think Pierce was 7th in Group B.

[HoosierDirtFan]

Dennis Erb Jr. Announces partnership with Rhino Ag.

[yawnoc]

I'm sorry. I know it might be tough for some people to afford, but if you can afford the $99, you get 9 nights of speedweeks racing (plus a gazillion races on demand and many more live races during the year). You can't beat that, especially if you're from where I am, and it was 15 below zero this morning.

[HoosierDirtFan]

Jonathan Davenport is the fast qualifier at 16.070

Group A - Jonathan Davenport 16.070
Group B - Josh Richards 16.185

[lw82]

Zero 2nd fast in group B 8 thousand slower than Richards on first lap on the track

Qualifying............zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzz

What happened that is starting shotgun in last heat

[Snake X3]

What happened that is starting shotgun in last heat

Not sure. He was top 5 or 6 in Group B qualifying. Either he got DQ'd, went to a backup or there is a mistake.

[HoosierDirtFan]

Heat races are 10 laps. Top 4 transfer to the A-Main feature.

[Snake X3]

What happened that is starting shotgun in last heat

Erb and Benedum were light at the scales and sent to the back.

Jameson had an oil leak and failed to start heat 1.

Hudson O'Neal throws a slider on Casey Roberts and takes 4th in Heat 2.

It just occurred to me that with 17 drivers on the Lucas tour this year, that it will be impossible for all touring drivers to transfer to the A-Main through the heats.

[Snake X3]

McIntosh scratches from Heat 3.

[HoosierDirtFan]

Zeigler just spun while trying to put a slider on Richards for the lead in heat 3.

[Snake X3]

McIntosh should have bought a provisional for the fastest 007 chassis that didn't make the feature. LOL

[Snake X3]

jameson will be the hard charger

Jameson sure has looked fast in that new Swartz car. Of course he's always a hard charger.

If you get the monthly you get whatever races aren't specifically designated yearly during that month. If you get the yearly, you get everything.

I think they only require yearly to watch PPV in February because of all the Speedweeks races.

[Hollis]

The kid is special

[dangerdann]

Exciting race. Good way to start the season

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Lap 50
1st Richards, 2nd H. O'Neal, & 3rd DavenportHow about Hudson?

[#FALSuperman]

That was a great way to start the race season!! Good stuff. Hats off to the track crew. This was much better than last year.

[Snake X3]

If it wasn't for that caution, that would have been a historical pass replayed on DoD long after I am dead.

[Snake X3]

Were they running same line Oneal was .4 tenths faster a lap till he caught Richards then times stalemated...

They were both on the bottom. Hudson almost went into the infield to get by Richards on the last lap.

They were both on the bottom. Hudson almost went into the infield to get by Richards on the last lap.According to rm he was way faster than the 1 last ten laps

[HoosierDirtFan]

That was the best racing I think we've seen so far early in the season. Hudson O'Neal will win a race this year!

[Shiny Side Up 18]

It was "pass in the grass" lite.

[KAOS]

If only Bloomquist wouldn't have spun and set there like a tool......thanks Obama

[a25rjr]

That was one of the better races I have seen at GIS! Congrats crew!

Good job from Hud and Ziegler, coming from the back!

[Dlmfan123]

Zeigler needs to work on his restarts and be will be good to go

[ride height]

Hudson is the new deal. If i were a decision maker of a company looking to sponsor. Id take Hudson over Bobby without hesitation to represent me. Ive seen both on camera interviews, and how they handle the limelight. Its no contest. Rooting for the new deal to become somebody in racing. Dad has been one of my favorites, but I really like this O Neal kid. Congrats to Richards too of course, but its nice to hear Hudson was wheeling it tonite. Thanks for the coverage.

[Snake X3]

It's hard not to like the kid. He comes across so humble and grateful for his talents and the opportunities he's been given.

[TerryM]

Awesome race! And we were back at our hotel room by 10:00. Ziegler and T-Mac made strong runs from the back too, but Hudson O'Neal ... wow. That kid is so fun to watch. I was pulling for Richards, my wife was pulling for Davenport, but as it wound down, we started pulling for O'Neal to win. Everyone around us too. Hated that his last lap pass was negated, but his time is coming. That 71 car might own this series in a couple years. He's that good.

Glad to see GIS at its best tonight, after the last couple years of terrible racing. Can't wait for tomorrow night!

[Illtsate32]

Pierce needs to scrap this shock package or try something different at least he doesnt have any speed...

[MI Dirt Fan]

Omg JD didn't win. Better cancel the rest of the season...

[a25rjr]

Omg JD didn't win. Better cancel the rest of the season...

Great minds think alike! :)

SS has probly hung himself! lol

[TerryM]

Davenport had a really good night. He was definitely happy with it afterwards.

[Bob Hubbard]

Just watched it on dod .....Great race at the end .... Where was bloomer running when he spun ?

[Highside Hustler25]

It's hard not to like the kid. He comes across so humble and grateful for his talents and the opportunities he's been given.

I'm a big Hudson fan but that kid can talk. Reminds me of a 18 year old Jeff Gordon in them post race interviews. I've got to think Team Bowyer has got to be shaking their heads:)

[blncfn57]

Omg JD didn't win. Better cancel the rest of the season...

I tend to look for the positives in every situation. He had a good showing..... and he didn't dump it in front of the field.

[TUTY]

Kid Rocket !!

[kidrock]

I'm a big Hudson fan but that kid can talk. Reminds me of a 18 year old Jeff Gordon in them post race interviews. I've got to think Team Bowyer has got to be shaking their heads:)

Same here big fan of Hudson, team Boyer may want to replace Don with Hudson

[gorj]

Just watched it on dod .....Great race at the end .... Where was bloomer running when he spun ?

he started 8th, prolly in 10th place when he spun

[Bob Hubbard]

I heard something odd about the 12 car as being a swartz/boggs ? Did I hear that right & if so whats the scoop ....

[gb81racing]

Yes the 12 car of Jameson is a new Swartz car

[TackyTracker]

nice job Hudson keep it up...

[SFrancisFan15]

Great racing way to make up for last years debacle. Congrats to Richards, Hudson and JD.

[turnleftandgasit]

Lot better then DoD got it up on my 8 foot tv

It isn't better if you have a slow internet connection. 12mb down here in Cooksville and Lucas is basically unwatchable. DoD is pretty good with only occasional buffering.

[Snake X3]

I was thinking the EXACT same thing last night.

[Snake X3]

I heard something odd about the 12 car as being a swartz/boggs ? Did I hear that right & if so whats the scoop ....

You heard right. I don't know the scoop, but it was being discussed in another thread.

[smoothoperator32]

Pierce needs to scrap this shock package or try something different at least he doesnt have any speed...

I agree that shock package has to go

[Cardirt0]

Sorry it $ucks down there..Like to play games so I pay for for fast speed...

[turnleftandgasit]

Sorry it $ucks down there..Like to play games so I pay for for fast speed...

12mb is the fast service in town. Frontier has no open nodes at their site and you are lucky to get 1mb dn or up. Satellite service you run out of data by mid month. Only drawback to living here, especially seeing I protect one of the most important fiber optic networks in the world for a living.

FO to the front door of were I live ..And then the 90 people get wire to there rooms thats dum ...But its way past what you get....To bad you still in the 90s LOL....

Kurfull, yoo jus sed a bad wurd!!!! :):)

[Clayton_Wetter]

SS didn't enough have T-Mac come through. is there a third option???

[a25rjr]

SS didn't enough have T-Mac come through. is there a third option???

I bet he's a closet Bloomer fan......bet he had on his Bloomer pj's and hat, all night!:)

[TerryM]

he started 8th, prolly in 10th place when he spun
Last time I looked, a few laps before he spun, he wasn't in the top ten. I think he was 11th or 12th. He was going backwards.

[CarolinaDirt]

I look for Bloomquist to bounce back tonight he never runs well the first night at Golden Isle but he is usually on point for the second.

[Slinging]

My Opinion..i think whoever wins should be thankfull...these races are stacked with great drivers...i promise you it's no cakewalk for whoever wins..

[a25rjr]

Agree......its hard to start outside the top 5 and win one of these!
