t4 - I'd say you got this. This could go back to that. Looks like Shannon's gonna have some horses in the stable this year.

Go 18!!

Hmmmmm, that quick Zero Domination video from Scott last night sure seems to indicate Shannon's gonna have at least one. Wonder how that plays with the Rocket cars he's got ready.........

Well,...

I'm with Highside on this one. They're both great and I've watched both in open wheel dirt cars quite a bit, but idk. Larson is definitely more capable at this stage, IMO.

Remember when Stewart...

Good interview, and they didn't even touch a bunch of other great stories in his career. Great to hear him talk about the generations of chassis he's driven and his dad's influence.

Pretty humble...

I'm all about that man. Even a flatlander from farm country understands si gogglin!!

Thanks for the memory. Wish Hud best of luck.

Go 18!!

When a lot of people were taking shots at Sarge several years ago, I never quite got it. Great track prep guy, runs a snappy show, stays consistent (like it or not). Always like the job he does. ...

Hope Gustin does well. He can wheel it...always enjoyed watching him in a SLM.

Go 18!!

No, likely not.

I'll say 82. Almost everyone capable of winning will be there.

Go 18!!

I also love Macon....home base for me as a kid. Cedar Lake (USA Nats) is great nearly every year, Knoxville is a unique animal and that makes it really special. It's a place where the best car and...

Everyone take a breath here. The new car is a Rocket. If it's not, there really is a story! Tuning it up for whatever races he chooses. Gotta get some laps on it. Just like anyone else would.
...

The new piece is an xr1. No doubt tuning this one for the Summernats.

Go 18!!

Good luck to Shannon, family, and crew on this partnership with Bloomer, Petroff, and Sommer.

t4g2, I agree. This did not happen overnight. Look forward to seeing how this will impact both...

Farmer City is a great fairgrounds atmosphere. Good camping area, pay admission at the gate. Lots of room on the grounds. Racetrack generally produces a good show.

Facilities are not the...

Hey Magic,

Glad to see you doing your thing on 4m again. As always, interesting, yet useful numbers breaking down what I thought was a wide open season in SLM racing.

As for a kid to watch,...

As highside, tacky and husker said, Shannon did this same thing last year. Loves I80, runs good there and of course there's the PDC. And yeah, there's a very fresh XR1 at the shop.

Great run in...

Congrats to Shannon and crew!! 2 tune ups earlier in the week paid off.
Took advantage of early raceability and got the lead. That was key. Took off from there. Good to see these guys off to a...

I agree with you TerryM---I guess I joined in 99 or 00. I remember how great this forum was for late model fans AND competitors. Big change for the worse in mid to late 2000s. Not bad now. Social...

The new configuration is good. Years ago, the half mile was opened. They hosted a couple of late model shows, including Hav-a-tampa in 1998 or 99. This 3/8 will be better, but it's a big 3/8. In...

Hope everything works out well. Looks like a good schedule, WOO or not.

Go18!!

Ernie and Russ Derr, Jack Bowsher, Ramo, Blankenship, White, Joe Ruttman. Tremendous USAC stock car racing back in the day. Loved going to Springfield and Duquoin every year to see these guys.
...

Wow, really? What race were you watching? English got into his quarter after Carpenter repeatedly blocked the H___ out of him and parked it in the corner. Babb simply finished Tanner off and Babb...

Hey Huck -- were you there? Answer that first.

And take the quotes off superstar -- cuz that's what Babb is. Check your records. Better yet, ask any of the other "superstars".

Sounds to me...

He doesn't care for PRP and it's time to get the deer gear ready. I agree with TMac.

PTown -- Part-time?? OK, but he's run 63 races this year. Not really part-time if you ask me.

And he's...

All in all, pretty good show. I do agree with birky time that there was a bit of rubber going down late in the race, but still pretty good.

IMO, track prep at Eldora has become about trying to...

As I look at the list of top 24 average finishes for drivers over the last 10 years, it's interesting that only 5 out of the 24 have been in all 10 main events: Moyer, Bloomer, Babb, Francis, Mars. ...
