    Oh no, not that crap again this year. Glad I was not there. How was the crowd? Those northwest winds are a killer on a dusty (every week) night!!!

But we'll ran show til towards the end. A lot of cautions in b main an in modifieds late model feature was done by 845 track was fast in late model heat. Esp first heat 2 mins 52 seconds an done

        Dusty? Uh really. I didn't see any dust in the heat races at the feature wasn't that bad either. I was in the stands outside turn 4 where they come on the track and could see the entire track fine. Track was slick like an ice rink. Made things interesting
        OVER ALL IT WAS A DECENT RACE. NOT THE BEST RACE BUT CERTAINLY NOT THE WORST EITHER.
        BShepp - fast as usual
        Moran - had the DB car looking good & had it not been for that last caution might have one in traffic <> as usual very good on black slick tracks
        Pierce - Off night for that team and did not look like them selves
        Davenport - looked good and if not for that last caution might have had gotten to Sheppard in lap traffic.
        Hudson O'Neal - was quick early but faded to 4th late in the race
        T. Erb - BPM car was solid all evening again.
        Owens - pulled off mid race.
        Allen Weisser - Peoria, Illinois racer looked very good and impressive in his first Lucas race as he made the show through his heat and finished 10th <> Not sure what happen in the UMP Modified feature but man was he mad at something.
        Nathan Stephens

        Next Race - 7/20 TBA
        2024 Season: 14 - Brownstown (IN) 2, Fairbury (IL) 2, Farmer City (IL) 1, Grundy Co (IL) 1, Kankakee (IL) 2, & Shadyhill (IN) 6

          Guess I needed to put parentheses and the words sarcasm with my comment.

          Jesus, I thought it was pretty obvious. BShepp is on a roll, and with the Moran guys living in NC, I think that car will be better this year.
          Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

            Yes, you are correct.

              B Shep is pretty much dominating these days. Moran was also very impressive. Lucas boys probably glad that Rocket will be racing with a different series.

                    Thinking DB and Morans both may have benefited from last year’s experiences and are going in with a more cohesive effort. There just seemed to be a lot of push back from both sides last year. Time will tell, not saying BP is anything short of a dang good wheelman but the entire situation seemed to be off track from the get go in 2018.
                    I hate time trials.

                      Doubtful you will see Moran and company put any of their feelings or business all over Twitter or Facebook either......should be a pretty good year for them.

                        DB owners should not let BP run that 32 on the car as the main #. Being Mr Lamm had just passed. That’s very disrespectful!

                          Taking more wins and money from his customers. He should be proud!

                          Racing is a unique game for sure.

                            They agreed to run that number before Mr.Lamm passed away.

                              If he wasn't out their winning he wouldn't have a product as desirable as he does to sellto those customers he's "robbing". And you act like he showed up at your favorite racetrack and beat your favorite limited driver for a $600 to win show

                                Isn't taking money from your customers the whole point of customers? You wouldn't stay in business long if you didn't take their money. It's a business, not a charity.
