Eldora Speedway, where is C.J. Rayburn?
Wow, the technology and fragility of these cars was evident last night, they just cant hold up any longer, the aero, shock packages and etc, has made these cars almost unable to race at Eldora at these speeds. Maybe we need to bring back dirt late models that are stronger than dirt! Maybe Donnie needs to wheel out the winning Rayburn car from the previous million. that being said.
If Eldora is going to be a special events track and not invest the time and labor on a great racing surface, lets be real this has been going on for the last 4 years at least. You have to ask yourself an honest question, Can dirt late models run at that speed at that track? I think the obvious answer is absolutely not. Lets face it, a slower Eldora always provides better racing, when its hammer down 15 second laps, its one continuous grove providing boring racing. I really think a simple fix is to cut the banking 50% - 70%. That will require a lot less track prep, which obviously hasnt happened anyways and we will se much better 2 or 3 wide racing, which Eldora hasnt seen in years.
