    While some shorter races can be good, shorter races don't give drivers enough time to work their way forward if they get a bad starting position. Longer races also have track changes, which can...

    It's a crying shame that Florence thinks that they need this poor format series for such a race. When Florence uses their passing points format, they have the best racing in the world. Why do...

    The liability of the track in this situation is huge, since they already had one go over the fence earlier this week. The owners/management had proof that it could happen, and did nothing to...

    Some items that are considered a safety item in one situation can make another one dangerous. Two drivers have died in Ohio this year. One because he couldn't get out of his car on fire. Did...

    Drivers like Bloomquist are what has ruined the sport. Drivers making a living off this sport has driven the costs up to where Late Models aren't viable at weekly tracks. Drivers like him...

    Tracks and series caving in to the whining demands of big name drivers has absolutely ruined dirt late model racing. Look at the results and the high majority of the winners are coming from the...

    WoO has lost a lot of their "star power," Only 3 of the top 10 would be considered superstars at this time. The rest are regional-level drivers that have the funds to tour nationally. Shirley is...

    WoO thus year is really just a regional quality tour with a few drivers capable of running national events. They will have little effect on national events like the North South.

    That track was in its prime when the wall started coming out of turn 4, before they added the additional seating in that turn. Drivers could race full speed around the top in both turns. Now they...

    That track is still very dangerous with the wall configuration. They moved it out, but it still has the same effect when a car hits the blunt end. It also keeps the drivers from fully using the top...

    The track surface, configuration and racing are fantastic. Late starting show too much timing. Too much dust because if the infield, not the track itself. The parking configuration is a death...

    Sounds like the tracks in the Mid Ohio Valley. They time every class now. Always start heats late and run past midnight. Plus you have to sit through from ohio kart racing.

    They probably would have gotten the same car and fan count for $25,000 to win and $2,000 to start. They threw a lot of extra money at it with no real result.

    I think the roll cage dug into the soft track. These roll cages need to be built with more head clearance. Not only for this but also to get out of the cars.

    Most tracks don't send a car to the tail for hitting the tires. No way to know for sure if it was on purpose or not. Sounds like Hilltop needs to get ride of the tires or get bigger tires that...
