Fly with another brilliant post. "That crowds a little clicky up there". How about passionate race teams and fans.
B-Shepp drives all night, races 15 minutes from his home town and picks...

Great point TheJet. BMJ was so complimentary to Dennis, almost to the point of saying I did everything to fend him off that bottom and could not. Nice to hear these guys praising and respecting...

Interesting moving this race to Kokomo, which is basically an open wheel based crowd. Kokomo has cut their schedule back so much it's basically a special events track now. How many fans do you...

Shiny, thanks for your updates! You make it exciting for all of us not being able to attend. Great job!

Cut them some slack? Run 4 divisions on a Tuesday night. And schedule the late model feature third. How smart is that for a new promoter? I don't get it.

Just curious if anyone knows. How much do the world famous Eldora push trucks get paid to run in the track? They turned a lot of laps packing the track. Thanks

I've noticed his qualifying, too. Dennis is qualifying much better this year, getting good starts and finishes in his heat races.

Speaking of announcers and hosts, this winter in FL it seemed like F-bombs were a regular part of Rigsby's vocabulary. I think he was interviewing Dennis Erb Jr and said he asked Dennis if it was...

Thanks so much Shiny for your updates! Good to have you back again! Let's hope the heat does not dry the track out too bad.

What about a "brief intermission", and they don't even work on the track? That's what's aggravating! When the flagman climbs down, you know you're in trouble.

I've been there 3 times and every time the show started way past the start time. Last time before a Bristol race we left at 12:40 am and they still had 3 features to go. Not sure how regular...

42 years of marriage. You guys were made for each other plus going to 600 races together. Honoring her tonight behind the microphone is a perfect send off. Be strong for Robin!

So sorry to read this. I can't imagine the pain for Mark. Prayers for all the family members.

Nice job TerryM. 25 years and still offering praise. Good man! 🏁

Fly on the wall offers such riveting comments. He certainly enlightens us all with his hard hitting replies.

If you're sponsored by the Dyer Masonry company, seems pretty creative to have a brick scheme on your car.

So Flyboy, are you going to this race? Gonna give us all your recap?

Who's Bobby Pearce?

CIRF,

You're right about Kokomo Speedway. The deputy and ticket taker look you over like an x-ray machine. Always looking for that bottle of water people might sneak in so they can nab you. ...

Like how in the MAV TV intro they showed an old crowd shot looking like the stands were packed. How do you pay a purse with a crowd like that. Guess the back gate and MAV.

Fly,

What tracks have you seen USAC dirt and paved midget racing in person?

Am I reading this correct about Farmer City?

April 1st: 5 Divisions
April 2nd: 4 Divisions

FC struggles as it is running a fast show. Promoters love that back gate.

Nice reading these posts. I'm lucky the neighbors took me with their son to see my first races. Late 60's we would go to the Mazon Speedbowl on Friday nights and the old Fairbury on Saturday...

That video is beyond sad. Two weeks before Christmas and families / community leaders have to deal with the loss of everything. Prayers for everyone.

Still waiting on 50Dixon50 to tell us all why FLO is so horrible.
