Last night was the best surface I can remember there being at GIS. Sorry but they stepped on their Johnson tonight. Track was terrible tonight.
    The winner passed the entire field. That doesn't sound very much like terrible track conditions. Just saying.

        Sorry but the track was terrible tonight. Yes Josh started in the back and won. Several guys that started near the tail and moved forward. Never stated anything about that. The track was WFO for 60 laps. Could have been 160 laps and it would still be that way. It had WAY too much traction in it all night. The heats were single file on the cushion. Tracks prepped like that are engine killers and car killers. Look at how many finished. The racing was better on night 1 because it wasn't wide open. JS

          Just see Bloomquist over heated because a dirt clod / rock knocked a hole in the radiator.

            Congrats to Josh. Sounds like it was an exciting race. I hope someone in the pits can verify if Josh, Bronson, and Brandon Shepp are still running the D3 head Ford engine.

              I thought they went by the highest in points on provisionals wasn't Hudson second in points.

                Provisional are based on last year points for the first 4 races

                  So how does tech work when you pull out a backup? Did lucas inspect Josh's backup before he went out?

                      Everybody was on her complaining about how bad the race track was you couldn't pass on it now you can pass and it is too rough I had lot rather see a rough track you can pass on than a one lane track.

                        How does Jameson’s new Swartz car look? They have mechanical trouble?

                        Just say no...

                          Jameson had overheating/motor trouble and flat tires Friday night. Not sure last night, it was chaos for most. I think once they get some time on it they'll be good, looked good qualifying.

                            Thanks Hoosier, hoping for success for Jameson and Boggs n Audie.

                              You can say what you want about the track, but there was more passing, this week end, than I can remember since the track was built. The loads of clay helped a lot. Not saying it's a great track, but it is looking up.

                              Josh passed most of those drop outs on the track. It wasn't just attrition.

                                Great question.
