Ultimate Motorsports & RV Park - Elkin, North Carolina 5/3/24--HTFSDS Event

[KTMLew]

Several Lucas guys showed up since Lucas race got rained out. Now raining at Ultimate. They got little over half the cars qualified, then the sky opened up. In rain delay but I have my doubts.

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

There washed up once it starts there. I've had my share of rainouts there. Went 3 wknds in a row then gave up

[KTMLew]

Have a tractor out turning surface over and packer cars rolling it in. I'd guess hour or so of this, then they cancel.

Edit: old-school discs behind tractor. He's running right against the fence. Let's see if does whole thing.

[KTMLew]

Tractor turning laps in the 3:30 minute bracket.

[KTMLew]

I was wrong. Not discing. Small sheepsfoot? Maybe?

[KTMLew]

Tractor is 88 laps down...

[KTMLew]

Oh man...calling 604 crates to come out and sling the slop off. Lower 1/2 of track is still a swamp.

[KTMLew]

Maybe just camera perspective. Makes track look really narrow.

[KTMLew]

Where is an Air Titan when you need it...

[KTMLew]

Unfortunate turn of events. Tractor got into the wall and broke the J-bar.

[KTMLew]

You all know 50% of this (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) is made up, right?

[KTMLew]

Pushing em off at High Limit. I'LL BE BAWK!

[KTMLew]

Packer cars to the pits! Packer cars to the pits!

[KTMLew]

Pushing em off at High Limit. I'LL BE BAWK!

My bad...Dash. Now B-Mains.

Sounds like digging that asphalt up is paying dividends for the drainage at ultimate.…..we are watching Mississippi thunder. I’m going to that joint.
Excited to go to ultimate in June.

[KTMLew]

604 ARE finally out slow rolling.

[KTMLew]

Gave em bunch of laps. Track looking pretty good. Don't think got ton of rain. Next is SLM B group qualifying.

[KTMLew]

High line has a curb that could bite. Heats coming up.

[KTMLew]

Re-configured my setup. Connected laptop to big TV so can still type stupid stuff here from the PC. Need to buy a new mini-PC and move this mini-pc to big TV.

[KTMLew]

Huge wreck on front stretch. Think Bloomer got drilled head-on. I mean DRILLED! Of course they stuck their head in the sand and wouldn't look, turned camera away, after. Eventually said everyone was OK. At least half-dozen cars totaled. Bloomer got crossed-up, possibly broke, and turned into wall before flag stand. Then it was a Nascar plate race wreck.

Bigly.
