Thanks Shiny.

Stupid flat tires.....

[Mod Runner]

When the #6 rolls through the corners can one see red valve covers on the Cornett engine ?

[BirkyTime15B]

First time ever to FALS. Loved everything including the really easy drive from Davenport, IA. Just hadn’t worked for me to get here before . Got to see some cars tonight I haven’t seen all season. Racing was good, facilities were very well kept and clean, food and drink prices were very reasonable. Sadly probably won’t make it to PDC as it usually falls on a busy weekend for me and Davenport usually has a big show right before that traditionally. 50/50 on checking out Farmer City next week. Knoxville on Saturday!!!

[riddle28]

once wenger blew and larson cut a tire it wasnt much of a race, i was hoping opie or english could make something happen

[bullring]

Wenger can't catch a break with engines. Anybody know who his builder is?

[Highside Hustler25]

No complaints here. If you like hammer down racing all night, there it was. Fast and efficient as well. When will McKay win one of these biggies?
Anyone catch Larson getting pizza? 2 funny.

[TheJet-09]

Hey @BirkyTime15B, what is going on at Farmer City next week?

[TheJet-09]

Gotcha. Thanks!

[kidrock]

21st not 24th...

Wha wha wha lol

[AllenK]

Weaver timed in very well with a Mullins LS engine
on a hooked-up track to boot. Beat out a ton of Clements,Durham,and Cornet engines in qualifying.

That was some kind of a ride he took! Whew!
