Eams

[NeedforLMspeed]

Is this the 72 hr marathon part 2 weekend? 9 divisions. 8 divisions and a 45 min intermission before the LM $10k race Sunday.

[B_K]

Of course. No other type of event exists in phenix City.

Super late models with restrictor plates. Dumbest thing I’ve heard in awhile. Give em the Dumbest ran track award again.

[JM15]

Unhook the 4 barrel and a 1 inch restrictor plate??? We do unhook the back barrels on super slick tracks sometime but there is no way i'm putting a 1 inch restrictor plate on a $40,000 engine just because "they" tested it. Just when I think EAMS couldn't possibly come up with anything stupider, they prove me wrong again. They really are just beyond help. I hope they enjoy the failure this deal is sure to be.

[champion24]

What??? Seriously? For what possible purpose??

[dirtcrazy4u]

Why not just bolt a 2 barrel on ? Stupid, they know there not going to get many supers this time of year so they want what ? Steel blocks, crates, or some other engine to be able to run with the guys with the big motor. Get real. Dumbest thing I ever heard.

Dumbest thing I ever heard.Just saw where they changed it again. $5000 for super, $5000 for nlms. Stupid. New ownership is the only hope

[NeedforLMspeed]

I figured they'd do that and see very little car count and then cut the pay.

If there was no restrictions at EAMS, how many cars would they get compared to Lavonia Xtreme race?

[84wedge]

Oh, an EAMS thread!

[fastford]

. New ownership is the only hope

and you are 100% correct , it will happen sooner or later , probably to late for me and its a dam shame , could be one of the premier tracks in the south east.......

[dirtcrazy4u]

Dump. Plain and simple

[Highside Hustler25]

Oh, an EAMS thread!

Makes me cringe and I've never been there or plan to. Has their ever been a positive statement about this facility?

[84wedge]

Makes me cringe and I've never been there or plan to. Has their ever been a positive statement about this facility?It's a circus for sure. Cars dumping gas all over the track, tow trucks ripping fron clips off, stalled cars waiting 10 minutes for a push. I can't imagine what the food must be like.

[dirtcrazy4u]

Positive. Stay home.

[JM15]

It's a circus for sure. Cars dumping gas all over the track, tow trucks ripping fron clips off, stalled cars waiting 10 minutes for a push. I can't imagine what the food must be like.The food is not bad. As good as any other circus, I mean racetrack, food.

[4wide]

At what point did things go south for this track.i believe they have had same ownership for years.

[Punisher88]

Now it's back to 10k for only supers. Plus! They've added monster trucks, freestyle motocross, fireworks, and a rock band. As if the days couldn't get any longer.

[dirtfaced]

When Beverly (Billy Thomas’s sister) left in 2015 the track took a turn for the worst. She was tired of Billy’s BS and had enough. Anything Billy touches turns to dirt (no pun intended). This weekend hardly nobody will be there, hence the reason for monster trucks, motorcycles, fireworks and a band. His daughter, Megan, had no clue how to run the track either. They are at a dead end because they have pissed enough people off and the lack of race cars and fans proves it. This track could be one of the best in the southeast. But, as long as Billy Thomas is involved it will continue to die a slow death. RIP EAMS!

Sounds like a bad remake of Joe dirt.....I've never been there , and by the picture y'all are painting I see that trend continuing.

[dirtcrazy4u]

Yea I've watched on TV. That last fiasco was enough for me to just turn it off. You know I say that but memory tells me I kept flipping back over to see if the TOE truck driver ever got the car off the track. That was hilarious.

[fastford]

dirtfaced , the track had took a bad turn way before she left , matter of fact , old man thomas was no saint , if you talk to some of the ole timers that are still alive , you will hear of some screwed up things they did back in the 70,s ,

Everyone wants her back, but most just weren't around to remember that it was no better back then. We got screwed by them back then worse than now. Nowadays the track is just ran terribly. Back then they'd run the shows well, but stick it a mile up your rearend on the way out. I live close enough to see the lights on the poles and won't be taking my car off jackstands for them any time soon.

[upaginit in North GA]

EAMS used to be a place I looked forward to going to for the National 💯 weekend. Had reserved seats for years. Then it just went off a cliff or something. As mentioned RIP National 💯 and EAMS.

[dirt crow]

The bobby Thomas national 100 win. Home cooking at its finest. When bloomer passed him for the lead, caution flew for no reason. Thomas got lead back. And I’m no bloomer fan. The place is a joke. Always been.

[champion24]

Any video ppv for this weekend?

[4wide]

Will car count for supers make it to 20

[dirtfaced]

No more than 50 total cars (among 11 divisions) so far.

$40 for grandstands sat and $40 sun.

RIP EAMS

[Late_Model_Mark]

Just yesterday I stopped off at one Alabama's best DLM's shop and he said he would never ever go back there unless someone new owned it. Quite the indictment. His words not mine.

Looks like only 1 SLM took a practice run .

[champion24]

Too be fair, they don't have to be there yet. This weekend could end the Thomas' reign at Eams!

[NeedforLMspeed]

I read they started late or even have yet to start and guys were loading up and leaving. I've read also it might've been cancelled.

[dirtcrazy4u]

WOW is that place a joke

[4wide]

3 SLM qualified with 10,000 advertised says it all

[NeedforLMspeed]

I'm seeing there's only 2 cars.

[dirtcrazy4u]

The folks that run that joint should tape what the people are seeing. If they can't see they have multiple issues then that's a hopeless situation.

[dirtfaced]

Last I heard was SLM was paying $800 to win now and only paying top two spots. RIP EAMS

[dirt crow]

Baaahahahahaa!!!!!!!!

[NeedforLMspeed]

The real question is. Can we get chili cheese in the fries to...??? 🧐

Sorry pal, this ain't Eldora.

[dirtcrazy4u]

2 chilli dogs, hope there big dogs. Some chilli and cheese on my fries. A few black n tan beers, what else could you possibly want ?

[NeedforLMspeed]

I don't think there's anyone there. Seems like it's a bigger blunder than the National 100 hrs.

[nuff said]

At least they finally got done at a decent time. LOL

[ZERO25]

[dirt farmer]

Did I see right that there way only 3slm cars

last time i went , or should i say got screwed , was 2001 , have not been back since , but im keeping hope for that new owner before i,m to old.......

[84wedge]

I love me a good EAMS trainwreck thread.

[LM1M]

I feel bad for the lady that does the Facebook videos, clearly she is just a figurehead and not making the decisions. The track has so much potential but the owners don't seem willing to walk away unfortunately.

[knot]

That is the owner's daughter. I think he has been sick and she was trying to handle things. I believe she actually lives in Tennesee.

[Dlmfan123]

Somebody send me a link to this video I've been hearing about it
