      That Late Model race had to be nuts live inside the dome. It will be hard to top this tomorrow, but with how small the track is, as racy as it is, with all the lap traffic, and a bunch of money on the line, expect just about anything.

          Lap traffic made the race. I was waiting on Bloomer to put the horns to Moyer Jr. I think a super smooth track wouldn't have made for as good of racing as it was. 40 laps is gonna be a riot!!!!

                Bloomquist missed the line he had been running in 1 and hit the hole in 2. It was his fault he didn't place better.

                Seemed like everyone that was downing this race earlier in the thread, got awfully quite though.

                    Exactly. Some folks need a new hobby.

                    People, ignore the naysayers. They haven't a clue as to how this sport works

                      I've never been so thrilled to have been proven wrong! I'm glad bloomer didn't turn Babb though he tried, there might have been trouble in the zero pit. I guess Scott was too busy trying to keep Lanigan at bay that he forgot to let off the gas to turn.

                      It would be nice if they figured out a way to keep those infield tires in place better, but heck at this point I'd say don't change a thing.

                        unbelievable race.

                        Also very nice to see a west Tennessee guy, Matt Cooper, take the win in the mods.

                              Lol. That little incident on that little track, and you think he was trying to turn him? Everything at that moment is happening so quick, you're on Babbs a$$, and he brakes just before you think he is, so yeah, you hit him in the a$$. You couldn't tell he also checked up to not turn him? Guess who Bloomers first choice is when he retires to put in a car? Babb. Bloomer fuked up, and they got around him, that's all.

                              I'm glad it turned out good for the fans, drivers, and promoters. I'd make a way to make them tires not move so easily. Cause Bloomer, and about everyone else just kept moving them in. Maybe put dirt in them and on the back side. Overall, I thought it was pretty good. Wasn't one lane, they were able to race, and the feature wasn't a crash fest at all. Props to all involved.
                              Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                                Dirt in and around them could lift them into the air, instead of sliding them, when hit.
