    I bet if Eldora gets 100 late models and 15,000 fans it will stay at Eldora. Also if they get 100 mods as well you talk about keeping it I bet Carl will smile all the way to the bank as will Eldora.

        If they decide to run this as Mods Thursday complete show and Friday Super Late Qualifing and heats and say Street Stocks complete show on Friday and Saturday B-Mains and Feature for Super Lates and a Complete show for Non Wing Sprints you might see alot of cars and fans for the weekend.

          For crying out loud, no mods and no street stocks. No Legends no nothing but late models. Although it would have been pretty cool if they had run that Steel Block feature during the seemingly 2 hour intermission that they took Saturday night. The announcer talked about every driver in that race for 5 minutes trying to fill time. All of us were like, why don’t they just run that race? I am all for support classes, but use them right if you have them.

          The problem is the gall dang motors.

            Complete show for non-wing sprints at the Dirt Track World Championships? Latemodelman, are you serious? Are you forgetting that they would have just run the Four Crown a few weeks earlier?

              as TerryM said just another Lucas points race that nobody cares about. The fun of the DTWC was left behind in a valley in West By God Virginia.

              Eldora does not need another big race, let alone a points series race. Why does the DTWC even need Lucas if you are taking it to Eldora? I mean why not just run them all there? I would love to hear if Josh King or Lernerville was even given an opportunity to host it. The Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame is at Florence ya'll!

              All I know is that this is the first time that both series have put out a schedule this year and guys like Barry Braun and Rigsby are licking their chops making their schedules.

                I've always heard that the kings do not want to charge fans for camping. It must be true because they could make a killing off of camping on the N/S weekend. That being said, they would have no interest in holding the dtwc. PRP made it's money off of the concessions and camping.

                  The “fun” of those special places and races have taken a backseat to profits and convenience these days…None of it seems real sustainable,I think we will see it cannibalize itself into making none of the series sanctioning really matter anymore.

                  Hope I’m wrong.
                  Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                    At the end of the day the racing will be a lot better at Eldora than PRP. That's all that should matter to people. If you're going to the DTWC just because of the camping that doesn't make a ton of sense. The camping situation was also very poor at PRP if you had to camp in the swamp. There were very few things that were "fun" about PRP, downtown and the Ribber were the most fun about PRP. Downtown Greenville is nice too, you can enjoy that instead.
