What I gather from reading the posts here is that the North/South 100 is probably a better race, year in and year out, than the Prairie Dirt Classic and the track is every bit as good as FALS, and some nights better.
Just the impression I'm getting.

I've been to both...FALS atmosphere, and facilities are nicer than Florence. Both have great 3 wide racing, the loaded nachos at Florence are off the hook! Dirt Track Hall of Fame is at Florence. Can't compete with that. I like both tracks...giving the edge to PDC, that being said, I will definitely be back to the North/South 100!

Been to FALS over 100 times but never have made the trip to Florence. I think we might change that next year.

And let's not forget how difficult it is to keep a track perfect for 3 straight days! There are tracks like Portsmouth that struggle to keep the track somewhat racey for 2, and Josh and crew kept their track perfect for 3 days. It just goes to show that putting in the effort and watering the track daily during the week leading up to the event will always pay off in the end. A lot of tracks could learn from what they did this past weekend. That might be one of the all-time great track prep performances, especially considering the heat and wind every day.Originally posted by Gary View PostYes sir, it is great. It's a really short drive for us to go every week.
Great job by the Kings having the track in great shape for all three nights of racing.

Florence needed the passing point format to become one of the can't miss races. Before that, it was a take it or leave it race. It has made a different track out of it and not just the heat races. They are going to need more seats soon. Such a bad problem to have. I'm not sure if the format pushed the track prep or if the shower on the first race with this format didn't tell them something. It did work out for them.

I've only seen PDC videos but no FALS racing is way better because the track prep is there almost every week.. The track surface is just better prepared.Originally posted by CIRF View PostWhat I gather from reading the posts here is that the North/South 100 is probably a better race, year in and year out, than the Prairie Dirt Classic and the track is every bit as good as FALS, and some nights better.

Why can't the track prep be like that for the entire schedule, not just the big N/S weekend? Two different tracks in comparison.Originally posted by GEAR_HEAD View PostAnd let's not forget how difficult it is to keep a track perfect for 3 straight days!
