Bristol Dirt Nationals -------------------- Super Late Model entries as of 02/26/2021

I said there going to fast. At those speeds the closing rates for things to happen is much much higher. These cars are not constructed to take hits at those speeds. Especially the sprint car guys. Site lines in a SLM are not that good and when they hike the LR up in the corners it only gets worse. Let's all just hope for a safe race. I personally have seen some really good racing on 1/4 mile bullrings. I believe I heard the place is sold out, that was there intent from the get go on this deal. The cup race will probably be a joke, everybody understands that.

Especially when he has 0% chance of winning. At least he is openly able to admit that.

They will be going too fast ya know. That's what somebody on here said. hehe

Hopefully it won't be dusty. Dream on!!

I can’t wait to watch a winged sprint rip around there in person

No doubt it will be a couple of long nights. It will be our first races of the year, so the tolerance level will be higher than if this were happening in say August! Mike Van Genderen is a master of track prep, so I feel like the track will be as good as they can make it. But yeah, it will be a lot of laps...

For me, it goes under the category of "event." In most cases I would not attend an eight class weekly show. Running all eight classes at some point during the weekend when fans are allowed is a plus for me. Most likely there will not be 1300 plus drivers still around by then, although not sure if they need to run a last chance race to get tow money. What I can say is everyone knows going in what is happening. Drivers were given ample opportunity to withdraw their entry if needed and other than the mini series for late models, it is not a point show. This show is not for the faint of heart, fans or racers. As we like to say, "it is what it is," so go and enjoy, or stay home and hope you can say "I told you so!"

I'm envious of all that do get to go....I'm certainly not the I told you so guy because I have zero complaints about too many classes.
Too much racing in a night is like having too much money in the bank.....no such thing for me.
I'm not real close to any track and figure if I've driven 100 plus miles one way ( closest track) then I'm already there and committed to whatever happens.....now that's not to say I won't crank the grill up or go and have a cold beer with a friend during a race that seems boring or a wreck fest but it's rare if ever you will here me bichin about too much racing.

Someone on Twitter asked Moyer Jr if he was going. His response was "No. Not a place for Owner/Driver"

Your above post is spot on. Like you said “it’s not for everybody.”
Could turn into an annual event or fade into the Tennessee mountainside after this year? Either way: we will be at Bristol in March and April and hope for great weekend “events” at both.
(It’s racing with fans allowed)- a positive step going forward!

foxfire2dirtracing: you may have been right. from:https://racexr.com/schedule-update-b...nationals-3-4/"Complete Schedule for the Karl Kustoms Bristol Dirt NationalsUPDATED: March 4, 2021Schedule may be revised at any time for any reason.UPDATES:3/1/21: After test sessions at Bristol Motor Speedway on February 24-25, 2021 track staff determined that practice before each event day would be detrimental to the track surface. In order to provide the best race surface possible racing will start in the afternoon. Practice will not be run on race days. Practice is available before the event on March 13 and 14, two sessions based on classes, order flipped the following day. See schedule for more details."

They ain't seen detrimental yet but it' is on the way an you can't run 6 nights in Tennessee without rain then what are you going to do.

Thanks for the reply, I think I was at that race you used as an example, lol.....I totally get what you're saying about Bristol and you know the drivers are all just as jacked up to be there as we will be to see them there.

I was at a Clash/Lucas/WOO can't remember which is was at Fayetteville and it ended about 2 a.m. They still had features to run. I left, drove over an hour home, turned on my computer and saw updates that they were still racing.

When I attend a local Super show the race is about 75% of my entertainment. The other 25% is looking at cars, talking to folks, watching other races, buying a t-shirt. When I attend the World Finals the Super race is about 10% of my entertainment. I just enjoy the "event". I figure the Bristol show will be the same. That may seem odd but just the way it is for me.
