Exactly Buford, most of the corporate sponsors in Lucas Oil and WOO are whats driving the destruction. People who race crates would love to race a super, its just not in their budget.

Been hearing a lot of rumors lately about the North South being postponed because of the tire shortage. I have seen a ton of drivers looking for new 1350s on Facebook because their local dealers are out. Anyone else hear anything like this?

I know Poske is out of the 28.5 rib. This is the first I've heard about a postponement. I'd been told it was mostly a spec tire issue.

They could just mandate different tires. It would probably make things more interesting.

Not a chance. Too many unfounded rumors floating around. This one is almost laughable

The Hoosier tire website has them for sale at this point. $175 each.

When I was there in 19 to see my cousin put in the Hall of Fame, the tire rule sucked! Kevin ran 2nd in his heat for 7 laps. Then a caution, Then he dropped like a rock! I still have a picture of that blistered tire.

Those Lucas spec tires were trash.

Another night of 8 cars with one groove around the top. Could not even get a slide job to work the bottom was so bad. Heard complaints from half the lm drivers about how the track has been this season.

Forgive me for an asphalt note: I went to Hickory for the CARS tour race last night. Late model stock car (my version of crate late models) paid $6000 to win and drew 32 cars. Super late models paid $5000 to win, and drew 12 cars. for me, I guess I just have to realize I live in NC, where late model stocks rule asphalt, but I really thought 5 grand should have brought out more than 12 cars.

And for the tire note, CARS tours has delayed their next race due to tire shortage, so it is affecting lots of racing.

They want every race to be won on the cushion, it’s pretty obvious. Rice probably can’t sleep counting down the days til the North South

The track sucks this year, it has for the past 3 or 4 years. Its so one dimensional, the only way to pass is a hail mary slider and 3/4s of the people throwing the sliders have no idea what there doing. Junk up race cars all the time with this crap.

Its tough to do but Florence really needs to balance it out a little, it wont take much to throw some water on the bottom and open up the track a little, or knock down the cushion and see who really has some skills to roll the middle.

And the person mentioned above is one of the ones who throws them sliders.

Not sure what you mean, but i dont race any longer, been years now. Actually got black flagged at Florence for rough driving at my last race LOL, was good times.

I am part owner in a Team, race there quite abit.

Dont want to seem overly critical of the track either, reading my post it would seem that way, but i would like to see some better action on the track. Its just so one dimensional. Overall Florence is a great track to call home, a lot to praise there.
