Knoxville track conditions

[TS FAN]

I thought the racing was great for three days.

The drivers better consider the fans or only a fringe will be watching. Tired of the complaining and some so particular that they will sometimes load and leave.

Fewer fans equals weaker purses and parked cars.

Is there anything Feger doesn't complain to reporters about?

[golddirt]

He has been on a roll, maybe too much bush? Something isn't right in his camp.

[Clayton_Wetter]

There was a time when Fager could not keep up on slick tracks. Seems like when drivers find out the secrets to success on dry slick they, then change their tune on preference.

Busch or Bush? Both have been known to be the downfall of many a good man...

[Hoosier_Dirt]

Feger's right. It's not rocket science to see it. I say there will be a decline in cars, track is big and hard on motors and equipment, especially when heavy.

[golddirt]

Really? Cars have been on decline everywhere for years.

[Clayton_Wetter]

It's not the race track surface that's causing the decline in cars.

[TUTY]

Agree, Knoxville does track prep as good as anyone.

I sat in the stands listening to the driver interviews and thought to myself what a bunch of whiners. McCreadie mentioned they tore up the track during the rain and now the track will be rough. Wrong it was smooth. Others mentioned its hard on equipment and engines. Heres a thought, put a gear in the car so its not revving 10 freaking grand for 100 laps. Never have I seen so many people complain that the track was too good.Don't get me wrong I like late models and I think this race is one of the best every year. But good grief.

You hit the nail on the head. Some of those guys just like to bi+ch and moan.

Not all race teams can compete with the money boyz and they shouldn't even try. Fegers buddy Unzicker figured it out and wasn't there. Why cripple your team with a hefty engine bill when there is plenty of racing left and money to be made. Many times for these small teams reaching for the stars (40k) is out of reach. Frankly, only half a dozen teams were fast enough to win 2017 Knoxville.

If only the guys that thought they could win would show up at Knoxville, you would have less than 15 guys. And that pretty much goes for every race big or small.

Unzicker is chasing ump points, so I don't think anybody thought he was gonna be there anyway.

Three great days of racing,worth every penny. I like Jason feger and even have his shirt but he had a great starting spot to make the big show and messed it up. Not tracks fault. And as far as drivers whining,they do it at cedar lake every year,so if they all keep crying about running for big money your gonna see more specials like the Masters go to mods. Quit crying,adjust your setups to track conditions and be happy your running for big money.

Drivers whining.......Is this something new?
