    Seems like a track being locked down happens more frequently in late model racing these days. Maybe I remember it wrong from the past. Was always some but now days seems common, all too common,,,,,maddening. Causing me to loose interest in late models, never thought it would happen.
    I hate time trials.

    I’m with ya kazual. Shocks are too good and cars have too much downforce. Tracks just can’t hold up like they used to. Unfortunately I think late model racing is going the way of nascar. I also thought I’d never lose interest but that is where I’m headed.

    you have some sort of man crush on Pierce. You seem to bring him up all the time, even in threads that are not about him. I know for a fact he likes girls so you're kind of screwed there. Maybe you could get a blow up doll and put a picture of Bobby on it so you can get your jollys that way. Just a thought.

    Been a while since FALS had a train race but they used to be guilty. Been to FC a lot. That was not the norm. Just sux for those that drove a distance.

    I remember the Summer Nationals race a few years ago locked down.

    Always enjoyed my trips to FALS and Farmer City Wished they were a couple of hours closer to home. Its cool to be able to stream racing right in my living room.

    "Locked Down" is really easy to detect these days. You have lap times. If its a 50 lap race, and everybody on the track sets their fast time for the race in the last ten laps, and this time equals or exceeds qualifying times, THIS folks, is "rubbered up". ANY other scenario is NOT 'rubbered up'.

    That's what I like about Macon. Even when the track isn't very racy, it is usually a good show because of how tough navigating traffic is. The fastest way around is also not that much different in lap times than the other line.

    While the racing wasn’t the greatest at FC the race at FALS made the trip from Michigan worth it.
