Home track. I will be there several times this year. If it was truly that bad Lucas wouldn't come back. Mr. Price seems to have things headed in the right direction.
Brownstown ???

What Brownstown needs to do IMO is focus on the safety of the competitors, the track and not run a ton of support classes.
I work on a team that races there and I have seen some disturbing stuff with concerning driver safety. They need a dedicated individual (s) to focus just on safety in these race cars. I have never had someone come check out my drivers safety equipment. To see if the equipment is up to date and spec per safety rules. Never. I have been to other tracks and we have had people check out the safety equipment (Florence for Example).
I just don't think Brownstown cares. All they care about is butts in the seats and cars in the pits. Its really sad. As much money they bring in they could afford to pay a couple people just to check out drivers safety equipment.
Seems like there is 5-6 classes running every night and takes forever to get the show in. Thankfully we are usually one of the first 3 classes in running order so as soon as we are done we leave.
The track banking needs to be cut down. I have seen to many rollovers in the last few years.BIG DAVE RACING

Yes lucas will be back because yes the stands were full. That race last year was still pathetic and the multiple support classes is a nightmare when you are a late model fan that drives hours to see a race, as well as a parent that would like his kid to be able to watch any of the feature at all. My plan this year is to go to my local track when that's all I have time for and then hit some major 100 lappers with no support classes. If I lived anywhere near Brownstown I think I would just go to Florence all the time.

Just an FYI. On Friday March 17th Brownstown is running a Mars race as part of a 5 class show. On Saturday night March 18th they are hosting the LOLMS for the Ice Breaker. It will be interesting to see how the track is on Saturday night.

Definitely could reduce the support classes. I am happy that there will be full shows on each day. The track has seemed to be much better the last year or so. I bet they do a bunch of track prep before Saturday's show. It sure beats qualifying only on Friday.Scott Kleindorfer

Wonder if any driver from the Friday Night MARS race will stay over Saturday for the Lucas Oil race. Would be cool to see a few of them guys stay for the big race the next day.Nathan Stephens
