Back in the Ford Probe, Hav-A-Tampa days!!!
That's around the time I started watching DLM racing.
94 & 95, he was nearly unbeatable

This is more monkey see, monkey do NASCAR stuff. I remember for the longest, when Cup Teams would do pre-season testing at Daytona, they'd be bare bones, primer colored cars with the number on the...

One tour stop in TN. None in NC or SC. Only races in GA are at Golden Isles.
Very sad to see this. Not many races within 2 hours for an East Tennessee fan.

This is a good idea, and would hopefully solve 2 other issues. Drivers would want cars that could race better in traffic, so we might finally see some aero changes, and they'd also want tracks that...

I feel like this is especially bad due to the 30, 40, 50 lap features. I wonder how much this changes during 100 lappers. Fuel loads more dramatically changing, tire fall off becoming a bigger...

Like you said, this is about a SHOW. It's not politics, and unfortunately, due to whatever reason, it's not about competition anymore either. It's just like NASCAR's stages, and SRX's 'fun flag'. The...

Another problem with racing playoffs is that it is nothing like the playoffs that they want to say they are trying to be like. Traditionally in sports, playoffs come from DIFFERENT divisions,...

Denny Hamlin spoke to this very thing on his podcast for Nascar's playoffs. When it comes down to 1 track, the drivers who excel at that track are usually going to win. His solution, and I think a...

Their announcement sounded like something you'd say BEFORE you schedule a race. I mean did they not know they had business things to do, or that their farm would be busy this time of year? They...

I just can't figure tracks out. If you're a farmer and businessman, do you not know you'll be busy. The announcement sounded like this wasn't unexpected, but sounded more like a conversation they'd...

But where? Edge of stand? at the flagman himself? When cars are that close, you HAVE to have some definitive plane that has be broken. In asphalt racing it's the line painted on the track. Since dirt...

I really think the solution is to go back to how tracks used to do restarts. The leader starts in 3 & 4, and when he goes, it's on. No restart zones or flagging or anything like that. F1 does it, and...

The biggest problem here is that this is dirt. All forms of asphalt racing can have a line across the track. It's pretty simple. Breaking that plane first is a win. For a dirt track photo finish to...

It's like how NASCAR and Indycar use "Alternate" start/finish lines in qualifying, that ends the lap early so they can go down pit road immediately. In qualifying it's about how long it takes you to...

My first World 100 was 1995, and they couldn't enter 2 cars then.
The reason I remember is because Bloomquist had Dale McDowell in an 18x car, so that if Dale made the race, but Scott didn't, he...

Yep. I have lived in East TN my whole life and growing up going to Atomic, Tazewell, Bull's Gap, Cleveland, Smoky Mountain, 411, etc....and I can tell you that I almost never "plan" on going to a...

Bloomquist has always had excuses. He's my favorite driver, but when he didn't win or run well it was usually because "something" went wrong. I remember back in about 94 or 95 at Kingsport, Scott was...

You're right, they do still have plenty of races for the drivers, for sure. The only problem is for people who live in an area that only gets one stop a year, to know if there's rain, they'll...

I've noticed that rain dates are becoming a thing of the past period, not just during speedweeks. How many races get outright cancelled now, rather than rescheduled? I think they are going with a...

I like the idea of having it like a "best of" situation. Take your best 3 finishes and count them toward points. Yeah, some guys will still take nights off, but you'd be more likely to get early week...

Car counts look cool, but in all reality, even back when Eldora had 200+ cars what did that matter? There were probably 100 that had zero chance of making the show, and out of the 120 that advanced...

Alot of people seem to forget that the WoOLMS started with a gimmick. It was a pretty good gimmick, but the whole "Dirty Dozen" our 12 against any 12 that want to take us on thing was still a...

You're probably right. But I do remember in the 90's when the noses still looked different from mfg to mfg. I don't recall exactly when it started being that pretty much all the nose pieces were...

Very nice looking car, but unless they are planning to add more smaller sponsor logos, the text on the quarter panel and side could stand being a little bigger.

It seems like I remember a time when the graphics branding had to match the engine in DLMs. I guess that's a thing of the past.
