        I know Eldora will always be a special place for DLM, but the North/South reminds me of the Indy 500 for some reason. Great show. Great racing.

                      I would like to see the North South as an all dlm event just like Cedar Lake. They could have done without the modifieds on the last night.

                        If anyone didn't like that race, I'm not sure they could be happy with anything.

                          Keep in mind that the invert allowed us to see the amount of passing that we saw. I know Pierce said that he told Josh that he wanted to get rid of the invert because he didn't want to have to pass anybody and the drivers don't really care if the fans get to see a good race or not, but at some point these series need to remember that passing and entertaining races keep butts in the seats.

                          I agree with the statement about the modifieds as well. They held up the show every night with their antics. I would pay extra to not have to see them at all. At least get them off of the schedule on Saturday. Or have a rule where after the 1st solo spin you're done for the event.

                            Talk about twisting a story to fit your narrative. Wow.

                              There wasn't any twisting...that's exactly what he said in victory lane. Go back and watch it.
