The man footing the bill so you can drive a national tour wants Rockets, you drive Rockets. He’s got the first East Bay blues (I believe his first time in a late model), he’ll get it figured out

Lol not even a week into a season and he already has to change cars. He's really only ever raced good on big fast half miles it seems anyways

It's too early in the season but I do wish he had stayed in a Longhorn. Has his car owner had a Rocket for a while or what? I only know him as fielding Hudson's car a few times last year.

I think Rocket was pretty good to him in getting him a car pretty quick for Hudson. I’d say it’s a loyalty thing

Some of you act like it's mid summer. There's close to 80 cars down at east bay. The list of guys not performing up to standard is a lot bigger than those that are.

I think he set the track record at FALS last fall. FALS is no where near a half mile.

The Eastbay track was garbage all week. You can’t take much from those 6 races.

Exactly what I was trying to get at. The track to me was an absolute pile of trash all 6 race nights. Screw the water content under the track surface. Water the d@mn thing like any other facility would normally do.

At least Bubba will attempt to farm the track during the night, Al does NOTHING!

You can sit and watch the race track literally get it's color back under caution, I've never seen anything like it. Watering the race track would've been a waste of time. They shouldve never replaced the clay that was on it.

Post here speaks about the track not being reworked. Hard to do with a live TV schedule to manage around. Not talking about a live streaming event, that’s different. Look at the recent Chili Bowl, that was painful to sit through as the track was groomed.

It's as much the cars and tires as it's the track. This trend will continue, unless measures are taken.

Believe you are 100% on target MasterSbilt. Seems more and more prevalent. One thing FLO broadcasts have shown me is that I actually have it lucky in my area with track conditions and length of show.

I think Kyle,Vinny, and PCC motorsports will get it figured out. Hard to base much off speedweeks, alot of teams struggle there.

Does it have anything to do with it being on a TV schedule also? They don't stop a MLB game to mow the grass in the 4th inning.

What's your definition of rework? They cut it "quickly" one night. That was a waste. If you are gonna break the surface and use water, it's gonna take a bit. It's even trickier there with the low and inconsistent water table.

You gotta have the right equipment and enough of it!

Volusia farms the track all night and doesnt take long at all!

This idea that Strickler’s owner, who is even more of rookie at DLM racing than Strickler is just gonna cough up another 100k for new cars to appease some knuckleheads on 4M is absolutely absurd.

If he's going back for the mod and longhorn late model and runs good at Volusia would they consider running outlaw tour instead of Lucas? He's the current points leader in outlaws and isn't top 20 in Lucas.

Kyle should realize it's easier and cheaper to change drivers then it is to change cars. Quit pouting about your Rumley-Bilstein bromance being put on hold. Huddy, Terbo, and Shirley don't appear to have a problem getting their cars up to speed in Florida.

This is 100 percent a guess but I’d say Strickler will run WoO and not Lucas. I believes he’s top 2 in WoO points, he’s not even in the top 20 in Lucas. Could be a chassis change back to longhorn as well.

He got the end of his finger caught when they let the jack down while working on the car earlier today. It was just the tip of his middle finger on his right hand.
