It's not particularly MY cause. Emmett fills the Expo Center up with over 15,000 people 5 nights in a row on a normal year and most are undoubtedly much more passionate than I. If you can find a DLM...

You do realize that there were 5 full nights of racing prior to Saturday, don't you? The Saturday night A-main was a decent race but there certainly were races that took place Monday through Friday...

You are absolutely correct, slideiton. I stand humbly corrected. Wayne County is some 4 hours one way for us and the Leffler Memorial is run during a period of the year that I'm usually unable to...

slideiton, you're correct about the biggest announcement of the recent past. I guess it can work both ways, either you wait to announce 'till after the Chili Bowl is over or announce it during the...

A big USAC National Midget & Spring Car show is scheduled for the weekend following the Labor Day Holiday in 2021. Hopefully most of the virus mitigations are in the past and the vaccine is doing...

Too emotional? There is no particular emotion connected to the truth and facts. Generally where the emotion enters the picture is when one tries to refute the truth and deny facts on subjects that...

Given the fact that you emphatically denounce dirt open wheel racing as boring and The Chili Bowl as a second class event it's amazing you spend so much time looking at, and responding to, the very...

The track prep doesn't account for the nearly 2 hour delay between the last of 2 D-mains and the start of the first C-main. THAT was all TV bull$hit.

The track prep problem was never an issue when...

One last point on the term "generic". The use of the adjective generic turns some normally mild mannered dirt late model fans bellicose meat balls. It has never been used with inimical intentions but...

Mark, I will strenuously attempt to avoid posting a novel as I've been rightfully accused and guilty of many times in the past.

I only take cracks and attempts at being a snarkor after I've first...

Evel, I'd love to split a 12 pack with you along with all the great conversation that would be the ongoing byproduct of a session such as that.

I'm pullin' for your numbers to come in not only for...

Interesting article, RtD. Jeff Gordon was in the infield during last night's A-main finale'. Gordon raced in the Chili Bowl during his dirt open wheel career with dismal results. But you can bet...

You were paying close attention, weren't you Rr.

Luckily Emmett has the best people in the business as track workers. The flips are not abnormally time consuming and detract from the show very...

Find yourself a Silver Crown car and come to Springfield & Du Quoin. I'll stooge for you and I'll even buy my own pit pass! LOL!

You are joking, aren't you? If you're not, you're doing a great job of looking dumb. LOL doesn't begin to cover it!

You may easily argue it but you'd be wrong and you'd look silly doing it.

Sincerely, we meant no offense to you Evel.

You speak the truth but there are meat ball generic dirt late model hacks...

Give the him/her/they/them/man-bun/antifoofoo/gamer time, BBQ. He'll need to do some internet research to find some marxist talking points to cleverly interject! LOL!

The prelim nights are history for another year. It's always just a little bittersweet. Justin Grant and Kyle Cummings transfer to the Saturday A-main by running 1-2 respectively in tonight's final...

I'll do that, Evel! We'll be in the pit area until the Saturday C-mains so chances are good that I'll be walking pasts Hoffman's pit area more than once.

I wasn't aware that Nick was having the...

That sure is how it looks, JimBo. There's Larson & Bell and then everyone else.

I'm beginning to believe that the Tuesday night fiasco with the track locked down was a result of all the extra laps...

If you mean that you predicted this year's Chili Bowl would once again be the biggest, best, most exciting and most entertaining dirt event of any kind this year then your prediction was spot on. To...

Prelim night #4 went just about as everyone who knows anything about The Chili Bowl expected it would. Christopher Bell and Buddy Kofoid finished 1-2 which transfers them into the Saturday night...

I won't dispute what you're saying. However, the only solid evidence we have is the time that both Larson and Rico drove midgets for Keith Kunz and Pete Willoughby. The equipment was equal and Larson...

The nasty tumble Rico took at Eldora during the 2018 Four Crown Nationals took a toll on the little man that lasted quite some time. This past season he seemed to be back to normal. I know Rico had...

The guy I was most impressed with on Wednesday night was Jake Neuman. Jake and his team were POWRi National Midget Champions in 2020 and have become more and more competitive over the past couple of...
