    no hatred here bud just stating facts and what others are thinking that are just scared to mention or talk about. an for the date they have doesn't matter if there's big $ in the area considering the feature is locked in an 24 laps to be ran. it's not like the travelers can join in. unless their adding additional show on top of the feature.

      It was shady how they canceled even though it was just sprinkling and it never even rained enough to even make the roads wet. It was one of the most bogus cancelations I've ever seen.

          What facts, you have no facts only innuendos is all you have. Facts would be you were there and heard the conspiracy. You have in a document, you have a tape recorded conversation. That would be some facts. Like I said the promoter can't pick a date and have races on that night unless it's a Friday night.

                I too believe there is a conspiracy. They're fixing the races so that cheating TP will win the points. Ain't that right, Matdaddy?

                    Yep, you nailed it.
                    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                      Anyone that has DoD can watch the end of the race and see it was raining hard enough to get the roads wet but, it's your story you might as well stick to it.

Shirley leading at Lincoln so, now UMP decides it want's Pierce to win so, we will make Lincoln a non points night. So I'm guessing they know for sure that Shirley will win the race and then spoiled it for Bobby. What some don't understand you can't just race at Lincoln. You have to get city approval to have a race on a night other then the usual week night of racing which is Friday's so, no they just couldn't race at Lincoln tonight.
                        You are so right. It's not as easy as some may think. The promoters already paid all involved in putting on a show, and now you have to bring them back, and pay them for another night that brings in very little additional income. And with the City's say on seeking another night to race, it's just not that simple.

                          I don't think ump is smart enough at this point to pull off anything close to that conspiracy theory even if they wanted too........just sayin.
                          Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                            I get the scheduling some what but not sure how many they will get back. esp with the golf outing and fundraisers at fairbury that day that a lot of drivers do and support.and don't want to hear the whining and crying if 5 points from Macon cost pierce the championship as Lincoln race will be rebuttal against it.

                              Still say the ten lap shootout between them both would be great....throw gundaker in there too just for the X factor.

                              And let that decide the 5 points.

                                5 points may cost $25,000. Will see if both stay on this week. id think if one of them have a bad night that may change there plans.
