    Aren't the top 4 locked in, and whoever finishes highest at the last race at Eldora, wins the Championship?

      Not this year. There are a handful of races to determine the champ

        Norris/Blair. outsider looking in. norris did pinch him down. blair close to the door, maybe there. probably could have let norris have the spot but had the better position if contact is inevitable. if there is a history why would norris expect blair to lift? sometimes better to lose the fight but win the war.

          Much rather have a car that rolls in the trailer at end of the night. Not sure what position they were arguing over?

            Why are they calling these things "100" when these cars can't even do 100 laps?

                Isn't that like saying you got 8 hours of sleep when you sleep 7 hours one day and 1 hour the next?

                  I noticed last year they were not advertising it as the Pittsburgher 100, and just calling it the "Pittsburgher." Lame.

                  Another old time big race with a storied history ruined by the sanctioning body.

                    I agree, I was just saying how they justified calling it the Pittsburgher 100. I don’t know why it’s 70 laps, either. Never really had an issue going 100 laps before. Even the big blade alcohol (the rules were pretty close to the old SUPR rules they used down in Texas) cars they used to run there 15 years ago went 100 no problem.

                          If they make it a 100 lap race is t just becomes two 50 lap races because they have to do a fuel stop
