How about some love for The Squirrel?!

Congratulations Brian! I sure wish him and Pierce could have battled it out on the track the last couple nights. I was glad Pierce (or anyone for that matter) didn't dominate the series like everyone predicted!

Congratulations to Brian and his crew.

Yeah some on here had Pierce cashing the points check for 1st with at least 10 wins before the first race happened. It looks like it wasn't all team Dunn Benson's fault last year lol

Congrats to the Squirrel.

It's hard to like the squirrel! I don't like how he always tries the block drivers and he's a horrible interview. But he sure was consistent every night!

WHAT HE SAID, ABSOLUTELY TRUE!

But I will say this People that run SN FIND a new track to run the last races at cause that one $ucks. the lighting must be from the 1930s. and the word Water is not spoken there.

That track was one lane from the start. How about that lapped car, looked like he let the Oakshade regular pass no problem. But wasn't going to let KRob or Feger pass no matter what. One thing for sure. Pierce would have punted him. I actually like Brian except for his blocking. Congrats to him.

And Feger should have. You are being lapped, you are slow, you’d want the same in return. And he supposedly admitted it.

Pierce probably woulda punted him, I know I would have. I’d give you a couple taps, then help you move.

And yeah, those that get all googly eyed about Oakshade can have it.

I like the squirrel ever since his last to first win at Knoxville National in 2006.

How did he get the nickname "squirrel"?

[t4g2]

How did he get the nickname "squirrel"?

Seen him spin himself out while leading a couple times and wondered? lol

The SN were fun cause 2 guys were going at it that most people did not want to win. the one that won is being cheered cause the other one did not win. But I will say this People that run SN FIND a new track to run the last races at cause that one $ucks. the lighting must be from the 1930s. and the word Water is not spoken there.

Race all around Illinois and wrap it up 2 states away...UMP is really not thinking things through but when have they?
Id love to see the finale' be some kind of special between 2 Illinois tracks, preferably Farmer City and FALS. Both paying 10k (or more) with little travel between the two. Total win/win for the fans and promotors. Put Oakshade/Michigan tracks somewhere in the middle of the schedule and only race one night at a place that does little track prep!

And congrats to Shirley on the title!!

[golddirt]

OK and used to prep a track very well they used to take a pick up with water tank and sprinkle it very lightly after each heat so by feature time the track was in excellent shape so I am assuming there are other people in charge of the track prep now because from what I am hearing the last two years really suc ked

[#FALSuperman]

end it at 100 laps at Macon for 10Gs Fri FarmerCity 12Gs Sat Fairbury 12Gs all be sold OUT

The powers who be aren't smart enough to even entertain that idea.
