    T3r3e3, you can replace Davenport with I55 in Pevely, Mo. Place is under water more than it's above. Still has great racin.

    I’d be game for every big event to go 100 laps if everyone knew how to dial the track in like Florence. Black and smooth from top to bottom with no rubber. However I have seen Florence take rubber, but it has been rare.

    I tend to agree. I enjoyed the 50 lap Firecracker more than the 100 lappers in the past. I’d like to see that format stick around going into the future.

    Copy that, wrong on my end. I’ll use Peoria alone then. While not a stellar track, way better racing than PRP. PRP would be better served to go back to the old 1/4 mile length and change the banking. JMO, but I’ve been watching races at PRP for about 20 years, and they have a definite rubber trend. I’d rather see the DTWC give Lawrenceburg another shot, move it to Florence, or cram it into I-77 or Ohio Valley and give the locals with smaller engines a chance. PRP has had its run, and has continually proven to be lacking.

    I like the 100 laps for big shows because it used to be about tire management but now there is less and less due to tire rules being implemented and everyone is running nearly the same compound. I wish that all of the big races were unsanctioned with open tire rules but unfortunately those days are long gone.

    I don't see why they are any more or less necessary than 30 years ago. It's traditional for many of these events.

    Yep, should be a rule for every national series!.....

    The only downer would be is that it would be a little too early for fresh strawberries!

    Amen. Couldn't be more right. The format and the cars help nothing either. I was honestly very encouraged by the effort by the track crew and the amount of rubber was honestly minimal. Signal guys started putting everyone on the bottom at lap 50 and made sure it was rubbered by 60.
