Baffling how they spend that much time working the surface and have it take that much rubber around the bottom in 30 laps.
This is why I constantly say the DTWC needs a new home. I love the town, the restaurants and the feel at Portsmouth but I’ve never seen a good 100 lapper there.
Maybe Richsrd Petty was right 😜😂
This is why I quit going, now that we can watch it from the house I’ll never return. And I have much respect for BShep, and Mark Richards, but it’s getting boring watching them win. Like it was with Bloomer 7-8 years ago.
Good race for 35 laps, congrats to Shep.
No matter what kind of dirt they have there, whoever was making the calls screwed up and didn’t dig or water enough. They had all day to work on it and did that. With that said, everyone makes mistakes and from what I remember, they had a really good 4th of July race there and I’m sure many others.
Every DTWC that has been there has been the same
Snoozer after less than 50 laps. There is only so much water you can put on river silt and have track stay together.
Prp sucks as the home of the DTWC. Town is cool and helps their economy, but at the cost of a good race? Definitely needs a new home.
Maybe it was not so much lack of track prep, but more about how well the winning team was prepped and ready to win.
The non qualifier race started 2 hrs later?
It was junk. It even has a history of being junk. Therefore it was junk... Again...
... sorry bout that one guys...

Third year in a row the excitement was over after the first 30 laps. It is time to move this race somewhere else. I loved it there for a while but it has run its course. Please please please move it.
When you put a grader out there with a chisel on the back and the chisel cuts slits like that water does no good. If that chisel doesn’t break up the ground and just cuts lines you need to rip deep. They literally wasted all that time on track prep. If I was a promoter and had to pay out the money for that circus I would be pissed.
TMac said it in his interview, track was gone and rubbers after 40. Only a few places I know that can produce good races beyond 50 laps. This place ain’t one of them. However, BShepp was out front when it took rubber and cya later and 100K richer.
