Sunday daytime race. Locked down, rubbered up freight train race. Without the usual Eldora inverts, the fast timer most likely starts on the pole.

The 2006 world 100 was not a day race.

I agree, the 2006 World 100 was the best. But it was not a day race. The Sunday day race was 2007, Jimmy Owens was the winner.

It was rumored the track owner didn't have money to put fuel in the water and push trucks this year. He lost the place shortly after that.

That was 2007. The 2010 dream was a good one as well. These and 2000 dtwc are probably still the best day races I've ever seen.

You're wrong again lol. Anyone who's been following dirt late model racing long enough knows that 2006 was the history making show with Babb, Pearson and Jeep battling at the end with Pearson coming out on top. It was on a Saturday night. Like one poster said 2007 was a rain out and was ran on a Sunday afternoon... Get it right... L!!

Correct, 2006 was a night race and the best one I've ever seen. It was also my first and hooked dad and I for life. 2007 was the day race.

2006 is the DVD we have in the camper that if there's a rainout we turn it on, it never gets old. Never.

Reminder, it's Eldora and it can be pouring .25 miles down the road and dry at the track, never seen anything like it. This weekend looks like dog crap, but just never know.

You are absolutely correct sir...

In 2007, forecast called for rain the next day also so I went home at 3:00 a.m. Sunday morning thinking they wouldn't get it in. Boy was I wrong LOL. Never second guess eldora on getting in a race...

We also went home in 2007. Camp ground was flooding, tents were scattered everywhere. Didn’t think there was a chance they’d race. Sure enough when we made it half way home we heard they were racing Sunday.

^^^ we had a couple friends that were staying in a tent in front of our RV that year. They had gotten white guy wasted the night before and didn't know a monsoon had moved in. You could see their bodies laying on the air mattress where the tent had fallen down on top of them. They laid there for several mins before they started moving around. It was comical watching them fight their way out a collapsed and soaked tent 🤣

I was there. Living in Troy, Ohio I was there Thursday to Sunday. Saturday was a wash but Sunday it was soo nice. Got out of there around 5p.m. Loved a nice day race and remember in 2012 when they ran the World 100 in 1 day they had qualifying and all in 1 day it was awesome.

I do remember that. The dude in the tractor made a killing that day. Someone said he was getting $100 everytime he hooked to something.

There's a video from 2018 where some dummy let another dummy hook his diesel truck to his super nice RV and basically do a pulling expo for the people that were still there.

The 77 didn't even get thrown into that roll. He simply put his rr inside that groove and all his weight transferred to the right side. Then it started rolling.

I thought so too, but there's already some good photos on Facebook. The rear of the chassis isn't too bad. It wasn't one of those Vision Chassis. It wouldn't have held up as well.

Probably the best DTWC feature ever. 7 lead changes from 8 different drivers and a three way finish.

That’s not saying much because the good DTWC features can be counted on one hand. Atomic and Lawerenceburg but it was an excellent race.

Low crowd. The weather play the factor but I don’t think fans want to go to the same track three times for three major shows during the year. Especially when the other two shows include preliminary features on Thursday and Friday.

Also broadcasting these races on Flo is just plain suicide at the gate. It’s not PPV, it’s a Cheap subscription. So many people sit home because they can just watch it on Flo and they’ve already paid for it.

Fast Wheels I was going to go to the DTWC since I live 40 minutes away but since the weather was looking bad and all I decided to go to a family gathering and watch it on flo. I will say if it had been 60 and sunny you would have seen more cars there and more people about 10,000 would have been there. But you also forget at the World 100 you have more WOO and regional guys show up and they bring family and friends.

The weak crowd is because people have to work Monday morning an with them starting at 3pm on Sunday didn't help. Once they announced that alot of people was just giving tickets away. Plus they dragged the show 6hrs 30 plus mins so wasn't done til 930p or later an add 4 to 6 hour drive home to work Monday morning. That's why attendance was down on Sunday. Saturday was decent crowd considering eldora wasn't keeping the fans updated on what was going on on social media very well.
