    If there would have been 5 cautions the zero was onto something. He knew it was gonna rubber up and expected tires to pop and yellow flag to wave and he didnt want to be the one to bring out the caution. Those 1350s held up and he lost a few. Im afraid he is going to lose a few more tomorrow night is the big problem. He knew there wasnt going to be any passing so he went for broke. I like the play

      Win is win ;D kind of sucks for fans paid money see a train race. When was the last time tri-city had a train race for a big event?

        always a tough call......take time to farm the track and hear complaints about down time or grab the money and hope they come back. Such a dilemma. Personally for 30 or 35 bucks for admission, i have a lot of patience. BTW don't rag on the winner.... he won it it fare and square.

          Hey some times you gamble it pays off, some times not. He can put some good runs together if he does fall behind little this wkend.

                  He didnt? With all due respect who did? He set fast time and won his heat by about 2 seconds...

                    I thought Bobby could only win on the cushion?

                      The track was horrible. Those guys need someone from Illinois to show them how to prep a tra--

                      Oh wait.

                        Bobby was 4 cars behind Scott at one point. Scott was 15 seconds behind on RM and closed to 8 seconds with zero cautions in roughly 35-40 laps. Scott moved up a lane and got it worked in and went on a tear. Bobby ran his best lap on lap 4 and 0 ran his best lap on 37. Scott had the fastest car im the feature and you can't argue that. The man passed 14 cars and Bobby lapped 1-2. Scott rolled the dice on tires and it didnt work out. Bobby got the dub and my boy ran 12th. Thats racing. Pretty sure he was practicing for Macon because zero ran the cushion and had sparks flying in the heats lol. He waited 54 years to learn how to work the cushion and he is a work in progress at best lol

                          Yes, but even easier to win in the rubber. He’s lucky that was Tmac behind him.
