Well this is two years straight and they have two nights of racing and from everything I have heard and read two years straight everything was as bad as bad as you could get that if something isn’t done to correct this I don’t know what Else it would take to convince someone not to give them to date to start with and quit making it the finale at Oak Shade has been previously said most of the races are run in Illinois so that just makes absolutely no sense whatsoever Else it would take to convince someone not to give them to date to start with and quit making it the finale at Oak Shade has been previously said most of the races are run in Illinois so that just makes absolutely no sense whatsoever

Yes, track prep worse than Brownstown... Lets put it this way... You are sitting at you're camp site wishing for cloud cover and rain. So that you can see a track that you can pass on. The last three yrs I have seen six A-Mains there. And all six were a rubberd up train race on the bottom. Oh well things happen... I guess... Ugh...Originally posted by Clayton_Wetter View PostTrack prep worse than Brownstown???? How can that even be possible??? My sympathies to the local fans!!!

Attica runs laps around Oakshade. At least Attica invests money back into their facilities, always have good competitive races, and run a nice program. I used to enjoy going to Oakshade, but the last time I was there was 3 years ago for the SN's and it was a joke. I haven;t been back since.
They have a large car count, but 90% of the cars are a bunch of locals that only run Oakshade and maybe Attica on a weekly basis.Last edited by ThebigE; 07-16-2019, 07:19 AM.

I appreciate the comments on the Pledge. I take great pride in getting the kids down there for that when I am at the track. The National Anthem singer was a ringer that nobody expected...including myself. Her name is Britney Benton and she is from Wauseon as far as I know. She did one helluva job!!T3G - Never Forget, Hardly Remember

I think we have to be real honest about the changes in Dirt track racing over the past few years, most of the changes do not make the racing better, most drivers are looking for clean air, and ways of going thru the motions out there instead of hard racing, the technological changes to the sport has lead to a lot boring races. And honestly I think anyone out there who doesnt believe that is in denial.

Yea, Because Eldora needs another 'special' race!Originally posted by 88racing View PostMaybe eldora ,atomic or limaland Kentucky Ohio with florence
If Oakshade is really that bad why not just not go? There are millions of other things you can do on a July Saturday night than pay money to go to a place you are just going to complain about online the next day!
Be happy you have a racetrack where cars show up at.

Oakshade
CLAY CLAY CLAY the track hasnt replaced it for 8 years to me knowledge it you want to keep a little moisture in the track there needs to be something there can absorb and hold pouring gallons of water on dirt and sand does nothing it's a shame where this track was 6 7 or 8 years ago hopefully they wise up get some good clay mix it in have Dane Miller show them track prep

this is 100% true. this is why car counts are half of what they use to be just 15-20 years ago. why a lot of tracks have dropped late models . how often do we read about another track closing?Originally posted by play4kps View PostI think we have to be real honest about the changes in Dirt track racing over the past few years, most of the changes do not make the racing better, most drivers are looking for clean air, and ways of going thru the motions out there instead of hard racing, the technological changes to the sport has lead to a lot boring races.

I know what you mean. I always wished for rain on Saturday morning when going to Brownstown. Trouble with that is, they cancel pretty easy when some rain does happen.Originally posted by WildBill32 View PostYes, track prep worse than Brownstown... Lets put it this way...
