Boyd's

[NeedforLMspeed]

Do they have too many cars there? It's like 100+. A parody DoD Twitter account tweeted something about hotlaps being 90+ mins long.

[Shiny Side Up 18]

Are the WEC cars still in storage at Sebring? Just run those and call it "The 12 Hours of Boyd's".

[zyoung25]

They started late, and it's just been a mess all the way around. Not knocking DoD at all, this isn't on them.

I think they are running that after the Driver development division...

Worse part is they are running the Supers last... Sheesh.

Unfortunately its usually always like that at Boyd's. They need someone with some organization to come into that place.

[t4g2]

Shiny you see the improvements Peoria made? they moved the flag stand and did alot of painting and changes

I knew about the flag stand, but not the other stuff. Hopefully Brandon can turn the place around. It sounds like he's really trying to.

[Shiny Side Up 18]

Hey look. Supers!

[Dirtking2512]

Yeah sadly Boyd's has had this reputation for a long time it's one of the biggest reasons why I don't go there. When they had Kathy Coulter the place was starting to turn the corner.

[Shiny Side Up 18]

Running a 4 car B-main with the top 4 transferring.

Classic.

[dirty bert]

You are right Dirtking it did seem like things were getting better then she was somewhere else, don't know what happened there.

[3 wide]

They couldn't run Cleveland why did anybody think they could run Boyd's

[zach51]

East Alabama would be proud of this pitiful show.

[champion24]

East Alabama would be proud of this pitiful show.

Not quite!! Eams would have 10 classes!! Who is in charge of Boyds now?

[TerryM]

This is how they do it down here lol.

[B_K]

This is how they do it down here lol.

Feel free to never go to a race “down here” ever again. I’m sure nobody will miss you.

It’s not indicative of everywhere in the SE. This was always going to be a train wreck. Boyd’s is slow and cars are having to pit in spectator parking. Not making excuses for them, they take too long most every night, but I’ve been to more than a few sh!t shows North of Kentucky as well.

411, Magnolia, Senoia, Smoky Mtn, Charlotte etc put on professionally ran shows all the time.

[Jim11h]

It's 10:45 and super feature racing. I'm not sticking up for since just finally able to tune in but realllyyyy???

You come far enough north of the KY state and you'll see how real racing works fyi

[NeedforLMspeed]

Is McDowell still involved in doing the track prep?

[Jim11h]

No clue bit Cherokee just now rolling feature on track

[WisWildManFan]

Boyd’s is rough to watch lol

[B_K]

They practiced last night and this started as an 85 degree sunny day race. If you were expecting much I’m not sure why.

I’ve seen a bad show in Wisconsin and some good ones in Mississippi. Illinois is Illinois most other places have their highs and lows.

Just heard a baseball bat hit a garbage can...

Not going to say the track but one time years ago they watered the track after hotlaps too much. Then they couldn't get the moisture ran in. So they asked for cars to come out and help. Which put them way behind. And they had a curfew. Most everyone knew they weren't going to get an entire event in. After the heats and b mains the first feature came out ran 3 laps and all of a sudden the checkered flag comes out. Called it a complete event. Didn't make up any of the races still left to run and gave everyone show up points.

[WisWildManFan]

2 wrongs don’t make a right

[Jim11h]

I didn't think was that tough to watch at Boyd but I didn't see everything! I can state that feature was fair, definitely not horrible!

So far honest opinion I'm not impressed with bottom groove dominant Cherokee. All tracks have their own character and that's what makes them unique.

Boyd over and Cherokee still running

[Hoosier]

Advertised start: 4:30 pm

Checkered flag: 11:15 pm

[NeedforLMspeed]

Didn't Cherokee start at like 7 or 7:30?

[Jim11h]

Boyd was never advertising start 430. Hot laps practice yes maybe but not racing that I saw cause I contemplated the 8:15 drive. If left by 8am I'd been there at 4ish. Racing I saw later

[dirtcrazy4u]

Social media has become such a frigging joke

[jr29]

I went to Boyd's once probably 6-8 years ago and I remember it being a pretty decent show. That was just one night though. Last night's show was a little rough.
I've posted this before but I'll drive four hours to Pevely, Missouri or further north before I'll go to any track in the south. Even the southern tracks that offer good racing have way too much qualifying and usually too much hot lapping.

[TerryM]

Been to around 115 or so dirt tracks. I’ve criticized maybe a dozen or so. Good or bad, I call it like I see it. When you continue to support the tracks that screw you over, they have no reason to fix what’s broken.

And a lot of these southern events have no heat races. That’s the worst part. The fastest cars qualify and then four hours later run the feature. That’s the only time they’re on the track.

[over4T]

Suffered through hours of the Boyd show on Race Monitor and got a couple of questions for those who "watched" it.

What's the format for the super lates there? With near 40 car only two heats or qualifiers how does everybody else get in, through time?

What happened to Tanner English with a few laps to go? Had a good consistent night and running 3rd with Michael Page behind him and all of a sudden he's way back, like 11th. With Page's reputation I'm wondering if he got dumped or roughed up. Never been to Boyd's or seen Page race so just curious.

With the length of that show I'm glad the beer booth was close, as in a few steps to my fridge. What a dragged out deal that was.

It looked like Page slipped by English on a restart. English was still running 4th a few laps later and it sounded like he broke.

They took the top 8 in qualifying from both groups and locked them into the feature. Those 16 guys didn't run heat races. The ones that didn't lock in, they ran 2 heat races and took 4 from each one for 24 car field

[over4T]

Thanks guys. Appreciate the info.

[TerryM]

Those weren’t heat races. They were consies. It’s becoming the norm around here to not run heat races.

[NeedforLMspeed]

Just going by the way the results are worded on DoD...

[fryefan]

Considering the boring format they run, they might as well skip all preliminary events (heats and/or b-mains) and just jump straight to the feature. All they are doing is just wearing out the track and boring people to death.

I appreciate DoD having races for us, but Friday & Saturday were major snooze fests.

As I said after Friday night's race, thank god I live in a region that has formats that promote actual racing.

[dirt crow]

The people running Boyd couldn’t find shoes in a shoe box. Been that way awhile. Until new management takes over it’s not gonna get no better.
