A champion that was a lap down

[Henry Every]

It's full nascar. They didn't have credibility to lose.

I enjoyed the race, but I was against the format and having the DTWC at Eldora. To me having so many big shows at 1 track kinda erodes anything special about the events themselves. That said I was wishing either Billy Moyer and/or Dan Schleiper had been there in an old Rayburn swingarm.

A Rayburn swing arm with a big engine would have 100% won the steel block event.

Eldora now hosts what are arguably the 3 biggest events. It's definitely too many. It's too many even if they didn't have so much issue keeping the track raceable. It's been really bad for several years now.

The reason for the lucky dog is that they are sending out lapped cars to the tail on the cautions. I would much rather see the leaders race together, without lapped cars in between on the restarts. So this rule is fair.

Moran never lapped Oneal. And maybe Oneal would have raced the leaders harder without the lucky dog.

The race was very entertaining both for the win and the championship.

It’s laughable that many people complain about Lucas being boring with her format, and when they do something to make it exciting manh people complain again. Race fans seem to be an unhappy. Bunch. The complain no matter what is done. So Lucas should just stick with what they did because it was a much better show.

That is a crying shame the carnival stunt that they pulled with this format. Rickey Thorton and his fans got cornwholed for sure with this sideshow ! !

Thorton should recieve an official letter of apology, this was an injustice.

[klemmabyna]

let's just simplify this. the champion of the series for the season got crowned champion due to a format designed to entertain, not the reward for a season's excellence. no one here is going to convince me o'neal, davenport, moran, or anyone else deserved to be called "2023 Lucas Oil Late Model Series Champion". Give them the big check. fine. just don't call them the 2023 Lucas Oil Late Model Series Champion.

We are all smarter than that.

Yes he should. Its only a matter in between right and wrong.

[Buford.Justice]

Yes he should. Its only a matter in between right and wrong.

Thornton I meant...

Thonton is the Champ, If it ain't broke don't fix it. Are young race fans this fickle? Are sponcers and head wheels off the rails like the NASCAR big whigs now?

NASCAR is a circus. Playoffs are not meant for racing.

The old point system should never have been messed with. I don't care if a driver wins the title three weeks before the season is over.

Thorton is who I meant. Such a debacle to give a championship to somebody who didn't lead the points like RTJ did.

Do you need a tissue lol........................ Hudson won fair and square. Your 2023 Lucas Champ is Hudson O'neal and team Rocket. Do I feel bad for RTJ you bet I do.

[kidrock]

Dang son! When you take a dislike'n onto someone , it don't matter whether you feel they're right or wrong, you just gonna dislike'n ........ Gotta laugh

You tell me where you see RTJ is the Champ. Last I seen it said Hudson O'neal your 2023 Lucas oil Champion. Like I said many times now I feel bad for RTJ and the whole team because they had a great year.

I mean honestly I was just wondering if he needed a tissue lol.....
