    Portsmouth should be embarrassed.

    For as much time as they spent on that track it was a joke.

      Baffling how they spend that much time working the surface and have it take that much rubber around the bottom in 30 laps.

        This is why I constantly say the DTWC needs a new home. I love the town, the restaurants and the feel at Portsmouth but I’ve never seen a good 100 lapper there.

            This is why I quit going, now that we can watch it from the house I’ll never return. And I have much respect for BShep, and Mark Richards, but it’s getting boring watching them win. Like it was with Bloomer 7-8 years ago.

                No matter what kind of dirt they have there, whoever was making the calls screwed up and didn’t dig or water enough. They had all day to work on it and did that. With that said, everyone makes mistakes and from what I remember, they had a really good 4th of July race there and I’m sure many others.

                    Snoozer after less than 50 laps. There is only so much water you can put on river silt and have track stay together.
                    Prp sucks as the home of the DTWC. Town is cool and helps their economy, but at the cost of a good race? Definitely needs a new home.
                    I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

                      Maybe it was not so much lack of track prep, but more about how well the winning team was prepped and ready to win.

                        The non qualifier race started 2 hrs later?

                          Nope. It was a bad track. With that said, Bshepp was the class of the field. He even said in his interview that he could tell before the race that it was going to lock down around the bottom before halfway.

                            It was junk. It even has a history of being junk. Therefore it was junk... Again...

                              Yup, I told my wife when Sheppard was uncharacteristically hammering it early to get the lead that he knew what was up and wanted to be out front when it bolted down.
