    Regular show? Every time. Top gets covered with loose trash.

    A lot of times, it all cleans off for a bigger show. That said, I was shocked with it produced a DoD top 5 race of the year, a few years back.

      Now that I've watched it, maybe some guys should have been real racers like 83 james. It could have been a race then.

        I’ve never been to the place but on video it looks narrow as can be.

          Was it announced that Gustin dropped off the tour. I had heard about Bloomquist and possibly Lanigan but Gustin surprised me. I wonder if it’s related to a little mishap the previous weekend.

            It's not very wide. But it doesn't have to be as wide cause it's a paperclip. You can't use the whole thing like everyone does at most ovals these days.

                Hopefully Gustin will return to the UMP Revenge He11 Tour and return some payback. Would be good for ticket sales!

                        Midwest tracks are better, no question. There are lots of racy tracks in the south though.

                                Or both !!! haha I've only been there once a dozen years ago. The track really needs a good cushion or it will be one laned. Just my thoughts after also seeing some race videos to...

                                Don't understand why they didn't build the original granstand back that was destroyed by a tornado. It was on the other side of the track than the ones being used now.
