Knoxville now 75 laps

[weatherman85]

It’s not like this event produces great racing year in and year out. The only one that sticks out in my mind is the 2014 race that Birkhofer won and that was more down to mechanical issues for Bloomer then straight out racing. Still though, a fantastic finish!

This is Sh#t. I know what you all will say....it eliminates a fuel stop. I would rather see 100 laps.I bought tickets already. I PAID FOR 100 LAPS. I have camping reservations already made thinking I was going to get to see 100 laps. Parking is 15 bucks a night thinking I was going to get to see 100 laps. And the rest of money spent this week expecting 100 laps.I'm guessing drivers were complaining and they caved in to get a few extra cars. In my opinion, if you want to shorten the race, advertise it ahead of time. Not once you have already sold tickets for a 100 lap race. Announce it for next year. This is almost false advertising. I promise you I will not be back.

If'n They are cutting back 1/4 of the way, does that mean there will only a 3 wide pace lap instead of 4 wide ? ?

I dont goto dirt races to watch pit stops and the 410 Nationals is the only race that I will attend that has an announced red flag fuel stop. And I b*tch about it every time and wish they would do away with it. Kudos to knoxville for dropping the fuel stop in the late models and I wish they would listen to themselves and do away with it for the sprints too.
No sprint car race needs to be more than 30-35 laps and no late model race needs to be more than 40-50 laps.
Just IMO.

Yeah let’s keep screwing the fans. While I don’t have a problem with them cutting this race 25 laps, DLM racing definitely needs the 100 lappers.

I agree about needing the 100-lappers. But it has to be the right 100-lappers. If it was my call, every race paying 20K+ would be 100 laps.

It’s the world we live in nowadays. Screw trying to be innovative and find ways to get the job done. Gotta change the rules and make it easier. If 100 laps is too much then don’t race. SMH. Racecar drivers are turning into little whiny teenage girls.

[Rajflyboy]

Waaaac 77 is right

What do you think of 50 laps now?? lol

[JimBo]

I want my money back from Flo now because of them cutting back to 50 laps. lol <sarcasm intended>

[latemodelman]

lol thats why no fans show up. This race could be a big race with huge car counts if done right. Now its 50 laps but tires are JUNK. Well I was watching at East Alabama all day on flo and they had 300 cars and they had black top to bottom and was good racing.

[TerryM]

They’ve (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)ed around all afternoon and now that they’re finally pulling cars on to the track, the rain is coming.

[Oiler]

It's no wonder that Madden opted to skip the B and head for Kokomo ($60K and not hard on motors).

[TerryM]

JD wins again.

[JimBo]

Two bad for Bruening. I was rooting for him to win this cluster F of a race lol.

[Hoosier_Dirt]

It was actually a pretty good race for all things considered. JD had to work for that one.
