Mansfield is a fine facility that most race tracks should try to duplicate, but it's not a dirt track. It was one of the better races I've seen for being a paved track covered in dirt. Hopefully it continues to grow and they get the bugs worked out.

I agree, the facility itself is quite nice. I suppose I just take the entire experience (facilities included).
If all these bugs do get worked out (especially the track, and maybe draw the 50/50 BEFORE the race starts lol) I will come back. Going to sit it out for a couple years and see how this goes.
Honestly if you want to complain about the pay out drops look at the hillbilly this weekend
I liked the name of the thread. I will say this much, as much as I agree with not calling something its not (dirt million), I give props to Cody for coming into a 'sport' or 'industry' and trying to disrupt it. He is trying more than 98% of the other promoters out there.
I would be surprised if the words "dirt million" are even mentioned next year. Maybe a new name will be created.
New clay would be a great plus. And as mentioned by another poster, the issue of carrying rocks onto the track with equipment and cars needs to be fixed.
Best wishes to Mansfield Speedway.
Mansfield may be a fine facility but like the HH said, not a dirt track. The track was terrible and the cars were bouncing so much I bet everyone watching had to see the chiropractor Monday morning. Half the field broke or had flats and it wasn’t the Hoosier folks fault. Hel1, the flagman looked like he went 12 rounds with Tyson. Cody is trying and that’s a good thing but take Bobby Pierce, Owens and EPJ out of that race and it’s a pure snoozer. Hadn’t seen the chicken wire in front of the cokpit and most of the smart ones went ahead and zip tied it on there. You would kill knee high corn if you tried to plant in that gravel pit. The first year and the name “dirt million” creates excitement and people traveled and paid. Next year will draw less cars and fans. Bet it
I can't stomach a 55 mph race like st.louis
Hopefully people will understand - it is a dirt track. All of the pavement was removed!
