What was so great about Bulls Gap?

[dirty-white-boy]

For all the hype the racing sucked! Is there even a good racey track below the Ohio River?

Maybe its time to change up formats?

Give me a $50,000 to win pill draw race, no qualifying! Lets see some racing!!!

I, for long, have griped that straight up starts has killed racing...at least at the local level, and maybe even the top levels. The days of someone coming from the rear and winning are well behind us. I enjoyed getting to see the show, but maybe that's because I'm up in the rainy/windy Midwest. This morning I thought about the races more objectively, and wondered, "Was any one race won from a starting spot other than the front row?" Bloomer put on the best show from what I could tell, and even that wasn't a huge gain over 50 laps.

That was as good as it gets for Bulls Gap, so it was graded on a curve. I've seen way worse racing, but it wasn't spectacular.

Too much banking on the track to put on good racing. Do not qualify, pill draw and make them race. IMO high banked tracks do not make for good racing.

You've never watched limaland then! Design of track can kill racing but format is big one. I seen 411 last year and enjoyed. Always enjoyed Florence when attended. Atomic/KC has had some great shows and my one and only Jackson ohio trip I thought track racey. Attica tonight will have good racing as well.

As for big movers the run from last to 5th in heat was impressive and not far outta 4th.

Cedar Lake is high-banked with speed and multiple lanes to run.

We had a blast. Loved every minute of our evening at The Gap.

Cedar Lake is one of the best tracks around, never disappoints.

To many under worked race track and under watered too when Ed turner owned it wasn't that way he turned it under at least once sometimes twice a week most promoters don't know what that is that race track was wore out before they dropped the green flag be interesting to see Tazewell is tomorrow night.

I have seen some good racing there and some follow the leader with no passing at all there .

[intel8]

I've been going there for 20 years, honestly never seen the track follow the leader, unless you talk the day race.

Wythe proved that wrong last night, for sure, but at most tracks, i would agree.

I would add Lancaster,SC also. That CAROLINA CROWN race a few yrs back that Scott Autrty won starting from the rear was unbelievable.

Them there are the good ones ! ! Not that stuff like at Bristol where the race is pretty much over with after the first beginning laps ...
