Scorcher bulls gap canceled

[MI Dirt Fan]

Didn't they just end up putting part of a highway or planning to instead?

At KLMS yes. I believe part of the pits is being used for new on ramps/off ramps from I24 I think it is.

Do we think the McCarters will put in all of this effort to run both tracks next year? Is the money made worth all the effort? Run less weekly, and more specials? They don't need the money! I hope they continue, but wonder. This race being cancelled a couple weeks before, after months of saying it would go on, is another thing to make one wonder! I think it would work very well on Friday, if Wednesday and Thursday are totally out of the question! Side note, Many of you can come see your East Tenn. stars next month at Dixie and Rome!!

This year could not have been a good year to try to run 2 different tracks with all the weather headaches.

I agree with the consensus that they haven't done what they hoped for and cancelled this race just to be on the safe side of things instead of going up against Bristol.

Great weather Wednesday and Thursday nights! Would have been great to see some dirt racing! This still sucks!! Wonder what they are thinking for next year, if there is a next year?!

I don't really think going against Bristol is the threat that it once was. I live in Bristol and for the most part, no one really cares anymore. I'd say there are little league football games tonight in the Tri-Cities area with more fans than the trucks brought in.

That's probably true and you're probably right, but the Open Wheel modified race, is probably the best race of the entire weekend. They are the best series Nascar has going for them. The modified race at New Hampshire is by far the best race of the weekend and I go to Bristol every year for the NHRA event. If I were going to go to see a Nascar show on the oval, Tonight, would definitely be the night I'd go. You get to see the Modifieds and the trucks are just a freebie. Also, I'm sure the crowds and traffic are much easier to deal with. I really miss when they used to show the Mods live on Speed.
