        It was horrible, I left the track after the heats. Arrived at motel in time to watch B mains. Then they ripped up the track and I went to bed. Just awoke and checked DOD for results. Not a good look for All Tech. For the record my panties got wadded up during qualifying. Ridiculous track prep effort.

            That show was a total embarrassment for anyone involved. Turned it off as well. Be interesting to hear what they had to say on the drive home segment. I'm sure sugar coated it.

              So...while I did go to bed, have TV on the wall at end of bed. The feature wasn't all that bad IMO. But i'm also a HTF bandwagon'er, so any time they don't embarrass themselves, I'm fairly happy. Ran 3rd-5th whole feature ended up 6th.

              Pretty good run in that Owens reject LongHorn. I quit listening to their Patreon. Just wait for the video.

              Saturday is another day. Got to watch Lucas SLM race in Florida from comfort of my recliner/Queen Sized mattress. Guess not that bad a deal.

                I wasn't going to watch the feature until they decided to rework the track. It was at least better than had they done nothing but, was definitely not what I as many were hoping for. Next race please.

                  This is the reason I attend all Woo/Lucas Speedweek races but Al-Tech. We went the first year and wasn’t impressed. So far for Lucas: 2 decent races out of the first 4 with Al-Tech making the 5th. I will just not comment on it.

                    Interesting discussion among the HTF bunch after race. Joseph owned the slide back from top 3 to 6th. Said he just got too conservative and missed his mark just a little few times toward end, "with these guys, you running qualifying laps, every lap". "Can't back off any".

                    They were slightly disappointed with finish. Knew they were good enough to get top 5 and likely on the podium.

                        I thought it was a pretty good show, had some comers and goer's, was more of a drivers track than a petal stomper, which I like. All-Tech is always slick, but the groove was changing all night, guys searching around. Even though RTJ lead wire to wire thats not the whole story. Joiner actually got within striking distance of the lead, pulled along side him. I can appreciate different types of tracks and surfaces, be it FALS or Eldora or something in between. I don't need every lap a slider or so tacky your engine builder is sweating bullets. I'd rather see a driving clinic like All-Tech than a demonstration of how awesome your aero package is or how much you spent on your engine.

                          RTJ got a gift last night.The late pill draw in the first qualifying group saved his but.Had he gone out early like JD, Wilson, or Junghans (all 2 seconds slower than the guys that went out later) he would have been buried in his heat on a no passing track. Sometimes it's better to be lucky then good.

                            Longhorn house car is still struggling with qualifying. They did have a good run in the A-main. Started 27th and finished 8th.

                              Whomever can get a little edge on traction has an advantage. Tech is the winner on slick tracks.

                                Congratulations t-mac and #39 team. I know he started up front but it felt good to see him finally run good.🏁🏁
