    You have to always keep checking the status of races this time of the year in the central part of the country. From the middle of March to the middle of April. It's nothing new for them to make a schedule change and it's usually comes in the form of start times being moved up.

      Loved that…..cool to hear the extra passion from Mr. Essex at his home track….Not that he needs any but I felt like I heard his voice crack a few times describing the place…..Well done guys, great race.
      Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

        Just my 2 cents but I agree 100%.
        FWIW: negativity on social media platforms is killing dirt racing- to easy for folks to sit in the recliner and bitch!
        Racing anywhere in March can be difficult- especially in Indinia. Hats off to the team at Brownstown and Lucas Oil for not canceling. WOO should take notes!

          looks like Flo has decided to cut out pretty boys from the announcing and reducing the camera crew to only a couple of views. I’m guessing the travel expenses and cost of hair gel has gone up with inflation.

              For once me and you agree on something with the negative social media b.s.

              That was a pretty decent show. 2 Super Stock heats, 4 Late Model heats, 3 Pure Stock heats, 3 Late Model B-Mains, & 3 features all done before 10:00pm. Drivers for the most part where clean in all 3 divisions. The late model feature was great. 6 lead changes in the feature alone. Hats off to the Lucas Oil tour and the Brownstown Speedway track crew getting the show done in a timely manner with few on track accidents.

              James is the best announcer in the business period.

                Enjoyable show for March. Spent a few seasons in that neck of the woods and often froze your goolies off at the early spring shows and it was a good thing to start earlier. Good DLM field with pretty good race for the front and also enjoyed the Indiana Super Stocks although was a little disappointed in their car count. We were always ready when the season started but a lot of guys just never were.

                  Anyone know who's ride KRob was in last night? Thought I seen he was done. Glad to see him still in a ride.
                  On the dlm negativity, this place can be bad but not near as bad as Facebook or some of the other social media platforms. I try to stick with Speedsport, DoD, Flo and a few others for info. Way less drama and bullsht.

                      Just conducted a psy-op. This place is 90% about drama & negativity. Same guys ripping on Rocket,LongHorn, T-Mac, Pierce, etc.

                      My carefully constructed complaints brought most the forum back together. I AM GENIUS!!!

                      Yep...it was all planned. You betcha!

                        The final demise of ½ mile asphalt Baer Field Speedway here in Ft Wayne was mostly caused by negative social media. It is also the reason the second to last promoter quit promoting races.

                          Thank you ! ! It is worth noting that when you are this heavily involved with the posting the popularity seems to flourish as it does when the Blackie guy is allowed to be active. . .

                            I was in my car after the late model feature checkered at 8:30pm. Not sure how long the other two features took. First heat went off at 6:05pm. That's the way to run an early spring show. I hope the Farmer City track team was watching this show. Lord only knows what time their WoO show will get over.

                              How was winter this year in Indiana? The track was nowhere near the rutted up cornfield it can be at this time of year.

                                WoO runs the show at Farmer City. Track just does what WoO wants.
