    What are your overall thoughts on the Prairie Dirt Classic weekend at FALS?



    In all honesty overall I thought it was a superb weekend. I think the car count is a good indicator & tells you what many drivers, teams, & fans think of the track and the folks who run it.

    Is it a bit over crowed? To some extent yes but I think that is somewhat of a good thing a kind of tells you what people think of the racing and the high regard they hold the racing there and they all know their in for one heck of a show.

    I've seen better and I've seen worse. The only thing that would have made this year better for me is if booby would have got to larson and taken him out lol. Then of course bobby gets sent to the rear and Babb or one of the other good ole boys from Illinois get the W... 🤘

        I'm sure this opinion will be unpopular with some and rightfully so. That's ok.
        #1 Move the camping farther away from the track to make for more parking. They all have golf carts so distance should not be a problem.
        I know several people that don't go anymore because work stops them from getting there early enough to find a spot to park.
        I'm sure it will not change as they must make a ton of $$$ off all the campers.


        Oh well, you asked, I gave it to ya.🥴

          you bring up pierce more often than all of his nuthugging Pierce Posse fans combined. Then you have the nads to say his fans are always bragging and boasting about him all the time. You got a woody for young Pierce. why dont you just go ask him out on date dude? its obvious he is embedding in your mind. Do you dream of romantic encounters with him? i mean his mom did say any truck stop. for real, Pierce has some pretty hard core fans but i think you are the king. Pierce used to have ladys thongs for sale....i bet you bought one and wear it dont you? maybe if you ask him nicely he will bottle up some of his man honey and send it to you.

            It's odd you say that because they had a lot of Golf Cart Shuttles and Golf Cars Ubers all over the area helping folks out. Sounds like the track knew their situation and prepared for it. There where at least 6 / 7 that fit 6-7 people on them plus the driver and more regular size gulf carts. My group I was with rode on a few of them. Hopefully they consider coming back some day.

            O well I fully understand why some stay away from the event anymore. They need to get the parking situation figured out a bit better they what it is now. That would help a great deal with this big of an event.

              i thought the crowd was way more vocal, cheering at every pass, i thought that was cool. There was a young lady working the beer stand around 230, OMG! pants were amazing double thumbs up to your parents. Babb looked very fast at times but then faded then would magically reappear, thought he was going to win. Like Pierce or not, Young money did pinch pierce off on the backstretch not dirty just good racing. Speaking of Pierce, its hard to not keep your eye on him, very exciting and never disappoints. I think he might of had a better chance if he started farther in the back. Stormy scott has got it going in the right direction. Oscar is da man. If you're wanting to see how to run a track properly check out FALS and Kokomo.

                      Nathan, seen the shuttle cart when I got there but didn't see it in the south lot again. Where do they park cars after the south lot is full? That lot has been filling up around 230 on Friday and earlier on Saturday. My friends ask me where to park if they can't get there by 530, and I tell them I haven't a clue.

                          These people never cease to amaze me. People still think they can just show up at 5:30.

                              Racing was great on Saturday. Friday dried out a bit. Something is def a little different about the dirt this year. I imagine they will retool a bit in the off-season. As to the event itself it was bursting at the seams as usual. Massive crowd of both fans and cars. Really cool to see a once in a lifetime talent like Larson sling it around FALS.
