Anyone venturing up top?

There where quite a few in Hot laps that went up top. The track seem to get faster as hot laps went on. Track looks to be a good bit more racy then in previous years. Babb was fastest in Hot laps just under 11 seconds at 10.9??

[WisWildManFan]

Good deal heading down tomorrow

I hope this track turns out to be a dandy. I would think it would be custom fit for those midgets. St Lou is my hometown so I hope it makes us all proud. Last years track was a pot hole disaster.

[cgrace]

Anyone know how many heats per group in the lates? 4 or 3 or more per group? thanks,

[HoosierDirtFan]

Group B qualifying on track now.

[Dlmfan123]

Anyone know how many heats per group in the lates? 4 or 3 or more per group? thanks,My guess is 6 heats, 3 per group. Not positive tho

[cgrace]

My guess is 6 heats, 3 per group. Not positive tho Thanks! for some reason I thought they had more heats last year due to having two features on Friday. Than the top cars in the features go automatically to the A main on Sat.

[Dlmfan123]

Babb fastest overal

Shannon Babb - 11.098 Fastest in Group B

PIERCE upside down in the modified feature.

It was really weird how pierce rolled. He said the car just shut off. I saw on his snapchat story they had the card completely put back together and ready to go an hour after he rolled.

It was really weird how pierce rolled. He said the car just shut off. I saw on his snapchat story they had the card completely put back together and ready to go an hour after he rolled.Dunno about the exact scenario, but it was happening in the late models too. They get going so slow in the turns it bogs the motor down and shuts it off.

I don’t know about this year, that was in years past.

[Dlmfan123]

It was really weird how pierce rolled. He said the car just shut off. I saw on his snapchat story they had the card completely put back together and ready to go an hour after he rolled.I’m pretty sure they were having carb issues in qualifying too

[chathamracefan]

Something similar happened to Babb on Saturday night year 1. He charged the top and car shut off and he plowed the wall
