Also, starting in 2022, all 20 of these events will be officially sanctioned as XRSS races with a newly established rulebook and a full-time, in-house technical inspection team.
How different is the rule book gonna be? could be a good thing or make it worst
Ummm, they already have been.Quote:

I'm assuming from what we've all see so far there are more of these announcements coming.
Hope this guy is okay with 20 car fields at most of these shows. The regional racer that works 9-5 were the guys that used to fill out the fields in these big money races. You can’t have a normal job and go to these races lol
These events are cool and all but your gonna have to sit tthrew 10 different classes to watch super late models. And for me personally I have no interest in that.

I just don't understand all the fuss about someone running against Eldora. This gives drivers and fans who would never go to Eldora in the first place a chance for some good money and for fans to see some good racing. More power to the promoters. Now lets see what they do and will they be respected once all said and done or will the drivers and fans say enough already.
That's what I say. Stepping on someone's "toes" would be paying $125k to win at Belleville.Quote:

They're not particularly my "crown jewel" sprint races. I've never attended the Knoxville Nationals. Someone scheduling against a "crown jewel" race of any division can be perceived as a moron but to take it as a personal affront with no monetary involvement could also be perceived as a bit over dramatic. If the guy promoting the Belleville event is doing what he's doing with a vendetta towards Stewart and Eldora then he'd better be cognizant of the possibility of getting his ass handed to him. I'd bet he/they is/are. Either way it's of no concern to me other than my personal hope for good fortune to come the way of my Belleville friends and that community.Quote:

I might actually use those tickets again sometime but for now and reason's unrelated to the racing we wait for 2 weeks past the World to enjoy the "mystique" that is Eldora.
I certainly appreciate your patience as an expert we all know you to be in spoon feeding someone as unlearned as I as to the nuances of DLM racing promotion, ect. LOL!Quote:

It's business, survival of the fittest, and if this XR outfit can make a go of it scheduling against sacred cows then they're adequately fit. Right? If personal preferences gleaned from personal experience were my criteria for what races to support then I'd never set foot on Eldora or Mighty Macon property again. They're not.
I'm actually a bit ashamed that I spent time from my evening to respond to such triviality. But I figure I didn't want let the thought and time go to waste conceding your vast superiority in matters that have so little effect on my existence and the existence of dirt late model racing! LOL!
CIRF, maybe you need to go back and re read your post. I simply asked you why you brought track prep into the discussion. You started taking jabs while I was trying to have a civil debate. I wouldn’t have brought my Eldora experience into the equation had you not boasted about going to Eldora and telling me I’ve never been to Belleville. Why was that even needed? Who is the one being childish again? Maybe by the time I’m 65, I’ll be lucky enough to attend half the amount of tracks you have. I just don’t know why you got your panties wadded up. Maybe it’s because you’ve made it known over the years you don’t care for Tony. Either way, it doesn’t matter to me. I appreciate you acknowledging my DLM brilliance. Have a good one.
It must be me! LOL! Guilty as charged, I reckon.
I hope when I'm 65 I've doubled the number of tracks I've been to! That's a goal worth aspiring to!!
What sort of dedicated dirt late model fan wouldn't boast about the tracks and events they've attended? LOL!!
I was never uncivil, just stated facts and if I was inaccurate in any way I'll humbly stand corrected.
I'm plum outa' desire and creativity so that's the best I can do for now. LOL!!
That 2022 schedule that Nathan put up for that group is pretty impressive if they truly have the backing for it. The surprise track, at least to me, is little old Stuart in Iowa. Been there a few times and really enjoyed the joint but can't quite fathom how that one made their schedule.
Big bucks going to some other pretty talented teams that aren't the tried and true superstars of DLM can't be a bad thing. Most of us have been to a shocker or several where an underfunded surprise stood in victory circle and thoroughly enjoyed their day in the spotlight. Doubt that many fans can say they didn't enjoy it as well. Hope and, often, unrealistic dreams are what keep many of us going. It's the old David and Goliath thing.
Ahhh, wise words from a guy that's actually been involved to a much higher degree than planting their ass on a bleacher seat, like me!! Bravo Over!!Quote:
