    No he’s just speaking the truth... it was like 40k to win, 4k to start at West Plains. Lucas has ruined the event

      I laugh every time someone says the Show Me 100 is a top 5 crown jewel today.

        JayD,

        I see you are one that is fooled by lipstick on a pig.

          Yeah some races it just going to happen from time to time, especially with everything going on right now. I predict there will be a lot more underdogs winning this year with all this virus stuff.

            Congrats to Looney, great he won.

            That said, ANYONE saying the new Lucas Oil Speedway and the old West Plains Speedway compare at all in terms of Show Me 100 are VASTLY MISTAKEN.

            The Gibsons made the event... period. The way they treated people was outstanding. $40K to win and $4K to start... not one track has come close to repeating what the Gibson's have done... not even Eldora.

            And the racing at West Plains was outstanding as was the mix of drivers who would attend.

            The Show Me 100 ended when it left the Gibson's hands and West Plains Motor Speedway. Lucas Oil Speedway can buy the rights all it wants... it has not been the same nor has the racing been as good. While I appreciate the facility Lucas Oil provides... until I see racing at LOS like what you experience at FALS, Cedar Lake, Macon, East Bay I will continue to attend events at these "run-down" facilities over LOS. I go to see dirt track racing for the quality on the track... the facility comes second.

              From what I’ve seen, the Lucas Speedway has never raced all that well.

                Exactly Josh. Looks like a great facility (we had Show Me tix and camping for May to see it in person) but the track itself doesn’t seem to race well every time it’s on TV. It’s either rough or what you had last night.

                  Unbelievable facility. However, the track was perfectly smooth and slick and the racing was just awful. And also, why was a 20K race 100 laps? I hate 100 rappers anyways, but that race was done and over at lap 25. That sucked.
