FLORENCE (KY) - North / South 100 weekend - Driver Roll Call

[Biplane]

Is the North/South not on pay per view? Not sure why I was thinking it would be.

It's on Lucas TV.

It’s not on lucas tv

[TerryM]

It was on the Lucas TV schedule for months. What happened?

[Dlmfan123]

Not sure it’s not coming up on the schedule but the mav tv dates are there

[Josh Bayko]

I'll guess about 55 late models if we're lucky. It looks like for Saturday's show if 45 guys show up, they make $400 at least. Times are getting tougher with the whole WoO vs Lucas Oil stuff. No one is willing to run the other series races anymore. Fairbury running a 10K to win show gets the IL guys from coming. Several GA and TN guys will go SAS Racing at Talladega Short Track running 10K to win as well.

Both national tours just came of long, grueling swings. I don’t blame anybody on either tour for taking a weekend off at this point.

Why would moran not be there with 72,000 on the line in 3 nights but he shows up at florence sometimes to race for a 5000 to win some of these drivers dont make alot of sense you would think that any driver that races for a living would be there

Probably because he is still in Iowa.

CnB,

I see the North/South format as an equalizer, honestly. It takes qualifying times out. A place in the program where budget racers tend to be lacking. You are going to start near the front and near the rear in your two heats, most likely. If you have any speed at all, starting in front should net a decent result. In the other one, finding a different line or a little luck can lift you into the show.

This race has been recorded and shown on a later date for a few years. I dont recall ever seeing it on the lucas tv schedule as being a live event though.

Before Cedar lake, I could've seen Marlar coming. Unless they get his other piece straightened out, I dont see him coming. I dont look for any of the outlaws to be there, and I don't blame them.

I gotcha man. It was Matt Miller whose interview it was. I would prefer the NS format, and even Eldora’s. But I understand his point, and do not see the count being above 65-75 especially if the weather is iffy.

I don't blame and fully understand WoO guys taking the weekend off but the format and payout through the field would be hard to pass. Especially for guys like Marlar, Madden, Moran and Shep. These guys have run up front in about every event they've entered. Wouldn't imagine it would be any different at the N/S.

Rocket1 hasn’t been home in six weeks. They more than deserve a week off at this point. I’m pretty sure Marlar was out just as long.

[MI Dirt Fan]

WoO has this weekend off then they run 4 nights in a row.

[Pennsboro23]

I believe Marlar will be there.

[TackyTracker]

what about Madden?? or the B5 family car for Sheppard?? I say all 3 take the weekend off and get ready for stretch run
