      Ok so ive watched the video on Dirt On Dirt, and O'Neal NEVER TOUCHED Lanigan..he was a good four or five car lengths behind O'Neal. So tell he how O'neal caused any of that?

        I think it was a great night of racing,sad to see the 41 of Josh McGuire have such bad luck after starteing 14th and going to 5th in 17 laps he was hauling it till the caution and looked like it just died on him.The open wheel was one hellua show,the 11 was strong but I think that 71 car was class of the feild had he not started so far back I think he could have won it.All in all it was well worth the 4hour drive.Oh BTW I think the lucas boys were hopeing it would rain during the caution so the 0 would be listed in 4TH but when a bunch of fans stood up and were shouting the flagman looked up in the tower and pointed at them like (it's your call not mine),there was no reason for letting them run that many laps under caution.This was my 2nd trip to florence and I will be back. Thanks Florence for a great place to watch a race and the rest rooms are 2nd to none.

          very well said. the regular shows at Florence make the year. The Lucas shows are good, but the regular shows are excellent on a weekly basis. Great car counts every week and a good quality of cars. Florence is the best track in the Midwest

            Glad to see Jerry Rice do well. Jamison over drives the hell out of his car. I think this is the reason no one wants him for a big time ride, he is to rough on equipment. JMO.

              I disagree with that, if you watch the video on dirtondirt you see Bloomquist cuts down to try to take the line from Dale and Dale doesn't give it up, I say WOO HOO to Dale for that seems a lot of folks always back down to Scott and honestly I do not understand WHY!

              About the post of after he crashed how they were waiting for the rain, yes that did seem a lot longer than should have been considering it was just sprinkles but that wasn't Florence's Call that was Ritchie's and I'm so thrilled so many fans were yelling and screaming about it...BUT FOLKS remember when it's a Lucas Show the Flagman has no say ONLY the officials, the poor flagman got so much crap last night!!!

                If you watch the video, 17m and 0b rubbed along the front stretch and then 0b turns left into 17m and wrecks himself and a bunch of others.

                  Wow... if you dont care for the Lucas boys who do you care for?? They are some of the best of the best! They put on a helluva show at Tazewell & I well got my money's worth. I only wish EPJ would have had better luck.

                  I'm just thankful with this economy that I am still able to catch an occasional race and that the tracks are still giving us a big race to go to!

                    That's the way I saw it on dirtondirt today after getting home. My first trip to Florence was a good one. I'm used to highbanks WFO racing. This was different and they still get it on just not what I'm used to but I'll 4 sure be back soon. Great facility and great racing. Thanks.
