    Maybe all the Crown Vics are finally destroyed in that area?
    If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!

      Yes and it’s a 20k race - but yet the top 14 are locked in and don’t have to run the heats?
      I will never support this kind of format. Ray Cook puts the drivers before the fans.

          I understand that some tracks are primarily back-gate tracks and therefore rely on higher car counts but in this instance, where you are showcasing the sport with a 10k to win SLM show, putting in this number of classes is doing the sport a disservice. Not even I, a diehard race fan, wants to sit and watch this so what makes them think the casual family of four will?

            The crowd looked pretty healthy. I don't get it.

              I'd say they got their money's worth. Good bang for your buck.

                    This is a growing problem for a lot of tracks in the Southeast.
