    I'd guess the weather forecast played a role for some not to make the trip. I've attended and wore shorts, T's and a light hoodie. I've also rocked the insulated Carhartt collection all weekend. Glad I didn't make the trip this year.

      65 - 86 or 47, they still start the same for the A main so I’m good as the upper league teams and drivers usually make the field. First time I’ve ever seen the BB modifieds in person and feature was pretty good. Awesome job to the 17 year old getting his first series win. I thought all 3 features were good actually. The #14 Australian in the sprint feature came out of nowhere there at the end. Think he had something for David had there been more laps or a caution.

        They need to do a invite only to what they can call championship night, 24 cars in each division. Up the purse so that each starter gets a min of 700 dollars. Pay the winner 10 grand and have a decent purse to 700. Run qualifiers, 2 per division, 12 cars in each for 40 laps. Second day, you run 75 lap slm and mod races, sprints for 50 laps. The format they have stinks and they want to extent it for another day ? Why ? The crowd , to me anyhow, seems to get less and less every year.

          Yet they sell out every year. Dafuq are you talking about?

          Again, what is your obsession of what 15th pays?

            I find it hard to believe it sells out every year. Is this written somewhere for proof?

              In 2018, they announced they were sold out for the 11th straight year- https://speedwaydigest.com/index.php...m-world-finals

              Currently there are just 25 pairs of tickets (and counting) available for purchase on the website.

                      Not everybodies butt stays glued to their seats all the time at this show. Sprint car people will vanish when the late models and mods are on track. We get it dude, you dont like the event. Shut it off and save us all from reading your senseless and useless posts later.

                        lol Not all seats sold have butts in them! There were a lot of empty seats near me at Eldora, but those seats were sold.

                          I'm here in the stands and yes I just heard him announce it that they were sold out after I posted that they wouldn't. There's a lot of people that didn't use there tickets.

                            The last sentence is spot on.
