    Actually the last two heats were fairly entertaining. No passing for the lead but plenty for other positions. It is a shame the track didn't come in until then. However I think the track prep itself was pretty good. If it is as good as it ended up last night, at least the second half of the feature should be entertaining. Looking forward to it.

      Agreed, the racing was not that great.

      I just wish the cameraman would pan out, so we can see the racing throughout the field. This is not NASCAR on mile and half tracks. I would rather see the racing throughout the field than close up shots of two cars following each other.

        Was that your first time to The Ribber?
        Ribeye or Sirloin??
        No I’ve been several times. Excellent food. Ribeye!

          I’m with BigDaddy84 on this one. This year is the first year I haven’t come back. The track just doesn’t put forth good racing. Move it to Lawrenceburg and i will go back, otherwise Carl has got my last nickel.

            Is Portsmouth a great race track? NO

            Is Portsmouth a single file track? NO

            It's somewhere in the middle.

            Stands packed, parking packed, camping packed, huge car counts, Why would Carl Short move the race?

                If the track doesn't produce good racing tonight, it's not from lack of effort.

                  They could work on that place for 3 hours and it would still be an embarrassment to dirt racing.

                    Terrible, even worse being the Lucas finale! At least this crap isn't deciding the Championship!

                      I had fun watching RTJ make a race of it.

                        Absolutely terrible race. What a joke.

                          Congrats to Garrett Smith. Definitely not his fault the race wasn't very good but, he stayed poised and really didn't make any mistakes and was able to keep it in on the bottom for the win.

                            Only good thing about that race was that young man's right rear held out. Good for him.
                            They dikd with the track forever pre race and that's the results? Pathetic.

                              Yawnfest! How many no pass, pole sitter leading every lap features did Lucas have this year. It sure seemed like more than normal.

                                Tiregate!!! Can't remember the last time I saw that many flats. Did the Purple Mafia buy out the backroom at Pep Boys' to supply that race? What an embarrassment.

                                Davenport went nowhere yet ends up the Hard Charger when at least 7 in front of him had flats. Garrett Smith was impressive in a stellar field and was all that kept me from switching over to a Sprint car race.
