To the ones who assumed the two comments I made on one post were connected:

The fact you believe I really think Lucas would cancel one race just for two drivers is the best part. :D
If that were the case, wouldn't Lucas cancel both races?
Let's try to use a bit of logic here.

When someone uses.....that's a separation/pause from a statement.
Let me say it loud and in crayola crayons for those in the back.

Smart move= the weather was looking bad for a friday night race.
This will allow EPJ and JD to only miss one Lucas race= this works out well for EPJ and JD.
Next time I post I will make sure to seperate by using a period. Then I will start a brand new paragraph.
Paint by letters could possibly be effective, as well. If only we could get this page to update the interface.

I don't care about pauses, periods, etc. When one makes a statement and follows it with one more line, that following line is a supporting argument.

Atomic is your typical race track, nothing about the place is fancy, but it's also not crappy. With the amount of rain we've gotten in the last 2 day, I'd say they'll struggle with keeping the track smooth.

I don’t. They usually sell the drivers hay for their pit area when rain like this happens a few days out plus the wether is decent over the weekend. I’ve seen their pit area when it’s really bad and I have seen them get worse weather and still race.

We have had several private messages that we simply cannot reply to everyone individually regarding tomorrow's Indiana Icebreaker.
Here is the announcement you have all been waiting for...
ALL SYSTEMS ARE GO AS OF FRIDAY, MARCH 19! SEE EVERYONE THERE!
Please refer to post about event to get all your questions answered. Private messages of "are you still racing", "what's the weather", "how much is it to get it", just to name a few will not be answered. As you can imagine weekends of this caliber and the unknown up until today keep us all busy. We most certainly are grateful for your understanding.

I think the night should be over. I've seen other races cancelled on far better racing surfaces. Shame on Lucas and Brownstown if they continue on with this charade

The stream went to commercials, so I figured it isn't good. I think they said the Chamberlain kid in the 20 car is only 13 years old? And now they're saying someone is getting air lifted out of there??? Sounds like the driver of the #18 car...

Oh my, prayers for all involved.

I don’t know beans about track prep so I have minimal room to shoot my mouth off, but I don’t understand...this track has been in existence for how many decades? Aren’t there people who know how to prep the racetrack, living ,and willing to work he track within the vicinity of Brownstown speedway? I don’t get it. Anybody who’s ever raced knows how much money a rough racetrack can cost a car owner. It’s staggering. Much less the safety of the drivers.

I imagine it had to do with the fact is early in the year and all the rain they had on Thursday coupled with the cold temps. Its a bad recipe. I don't blame track prep, but you can't fight mother nature and win. When she says no racing, she means business.

Didn't some of the WoO teams go there rather than Bristol because it was going to be easier on equipment?

As I said earlier on Facebook, at a lot of tracks, any time you see a track qualifying record broken, it usually means bad news for the drivers once the racing starts. Brownstown is one of those tracks. I’ve seen it too many times.

You would think these clowns have never been to a race track before. Short term it will be better but after about 10 laps it will be ruts again.

ONLY chance you have is to drop a blade in the track, turn over about 18" of dirt, water it and roll it in again. The whole turn, not just a strip.

The problem is you talk about education, and try to knock public education, but yet cannot form an actual sentence. So I’m guessing your outright hypocrisy is the knock. Just a hunch.

And why knock public education, I have no idea? It is better than the alternatives 90% of the time.

And to answer that question that was somehow in that mumbo jumbo rant, they’d have probably been dead.

You can’t compare USAC wingless guys from 40-50 years ago to today’s late models that have so much traction it’s unsafe when the track is super heavy. Of course sitting behind your keyboard it’s an easy call. I can only imagine in person it was very hard to watch.

Amazing how some of you are so selfish and careless. Is it that hard to put yourself in a driver, car owner, or track officials shoes? Or how about a fan if one of them died? I only missed Shane Ungers death because of getting the stream to work, and not being there because of complications my wife had with our second child’s pregnancy. Nothing to do with track conditions(tragic accident), but never ever, do you want to see a death. Especially one that could be avoided by just making the right choice. Which Brownstown did.

So in 2009 and 2012 at the UMP Nationals when Eldora ran after more than 2 inches of rain and ran all day on Saturday and had 120 to 140 mods and 50 to 60 late models and were flipping and tearing them up and the track was like a cornfield they should have cancelled? I remember Brand Thirlby flipping real bad and cars hoods flying off during qualifing and heats.

One time back in the 1980's the B-town track got water deep under the track in turn four down low. They were never able to fix it until they dug the track up at least eight feet in that area. It turned out that the drainage system wasn't working.

No matter how much grading or packing they did to the track, you could actually walk on it and it felt like walking on a waterbed. And it would go from smooth to rough in no time.

Not to say that is what is wrong this time, but it could be.

There’s aren’t any issues. New clay, cold temps and moisture are why it so rough. It will be just fine. Brownstown is the best it’s been in years.
