28th Annual Prairie Dirt Classic at Fairbury - Night 1

[zyoung25]

Never heard of the young man till last night. Impressive. And only 18? Kid has a bright future ahead of him.

Kody is from my area, he actually lives up near Eldora. He's got 3 wins tho season, at the 3 different tracks. He's improved a ton in the last year. When I seen he was making the trip, I knew he would do well. FALS suit his style.

He was bad fast. A little wild at times, but so was just about everybody else on a very hooked up track.

I agree Shepp will be tough tonight

That cushion bit more than one last night... while there were some holes around the track some guys had their shocks working better than others... not everyone was bouncing around as bad as others. Sure was a lot of action in both classes...

MI dirt fan,

Clanton has been in a capital car for about 3 years. Various drivers have jumped in and out of them over the last couple years, but Clanton has enjoyed the most success. Francis hasn't looked good in any car he's driven for 3 years. Hate to say it, but WoO has Chub Frank, Lucas has Steve Francis.

Clanton has never run a ton of Lucas events. When he has, it's been events closer to his home stompin' grounds in GA. Lanigan always received the same criticism when he was on WoO tour. Now that Darrell runs Lucas, he runs very few WoO shows. Bottom line is this...these guys have lives and families too, and committing to either series is 30+ weekends out of the year.

KAOS,
If the Lucas tour is so superior, then tell me why Richards is leading points in his 1st go-round?? Don O'Neal is a darn good racecar driver and he finally got his 1st WoO win this year. We're talking a lot of years and a lot of events entered, and it was a race in FL.

The top 5-6 drivers in each series are pretty d@mn good. Maybe WoO drivers don't go to Lucas events and vice versa b/c of how they "tech" or don't tech certain cars.

Couple things. I don't follow Shane Clanton much so I have a few questions. Pardon me if these sound kinda dumb. I see he has a Capital car. How long has he been in one? And why can't Steve Francis find the success Clanton is having? Are they the only 2 in Capital cars on National tours? Why doesn't Clanton run any Lucas shows? Or at least the bigger ones? Has he in the past? Thanks.

He's been in one for awhile. It's his and Marshall Greens creation. At one time last year, Heckenast, Junghans, Marler had Capital cars. Obviously now they don't. Clanton did run I-80 and Knoxville Lucas races last year. That's more the exception than they rule with Clanton. About the only lucas race he runs regularly is that fall race at Dixie.

[MI Dirt Fan]

Thanks. Like I said only select LOLMS events I was referring to like North/South which isn't too far from him or DTWC which is somewhat far but has paid well.

Is this race on pay per view ? I dont see it on dod ....

Nobody brought up the fact that Bronson was thinking about the newest Affliction shirt and ran through Kody?

All joking aside, obviously he checked up before Bronson anticipated him checking up. If Bronson can get himself in check, he will be pretty good I think. Sure has the cash behind him to fix all his fuk ups. And Kody was impressive.

All 4 are on DoD.

Yup and Marshal Green is here helping.

[bullring]

No live broadcast that I could find. Thought maybe Dirtvision would have it since it's WOO sanctioned but all they have is audio.

It is not a PPV. As soon as they get fiber optics ran to the fair grounds, it will be DoD's biggest production, as it is their home track.

Correct...and trust me it is coming! Perhaps even next year. Expect to see the PDC purse increase next year as well. You guys are going to have no argument over whether or not this is a "Crown Jewel" event soon enough.
