Brownstown Speedway and the Lucas Oil Series

Just one question if I may, I feel it is relevant here... What did Lucas Officials recommend you to do that you refused? Thanks.

Captain, I believe that "misting" the track again would have been pointless as it had been done once earlier and the only results from it was to set the track up to take on a lot more rubber. Once the track got to the condition it was in by the time hot laps were over. There was nothing that really could be done about the nights tracks conditions other than cutting the entire surface up and that would have been pretty time consuming.

I can generally read a track before the cars even get on it, and I knew we were in for a bad night as soon as we got there.

Wow, you got your apology and now you'll be back. You really thought they weren't doing all they could to provide a good track? Why people seem to feel so entitled to have the best experience of their life and then complain when it's not is beyond me. What a cry baby. Everyone is an expert these days. Don't pis em off or they will complain and you'll have to do the politically correct thing. What a douche. Try asking questions next time instead of jumping to conclusions.

Not one person has said, nor implied, that they are entitled to have "the best experience of their life".

What I, as well as every other paying customer is entitled to is the best effort put forth by the promoter to provide a quality product.

This is a direct quote, "we told him to till it up and water
And he didn't want to"

Lol, Lucas said that??? I really find that one VERY hard to believe, but if you say so, I have no reason to question it... Just don't see them saying that!!

[COKEandaSMILE]

That's the information I was given.

[Captain Happy]

It happens, this much is for sure!!

That's the information I was given.

People want to believe this theory that Lucas controls the track prep at every race. Especially when there happens to be a bad race like at Brownstown. I've caught a lot of sh!t in the past for saying that wasn't the case. I've seen with my own eyes, heard with my own ears that Lucas doesn't control the prep. The track crew controls the prep. I've seen bad races at tracks that have good prep. And I've seen bad tracks have great races. Sometimes that's just how it happens.

Lucas just like any series wants to put the best show on for the fans. Why would they want anything different?

[Captain Happy]

Mother nature has the last word in any situation at any track. I personalty haven't taken the time to do the research of when Lucas races have been at their best just after a good rain, but this has been the way it goes from my observations only. I do believe tho Lucas does have a big impact on track prep for if no other reason you can't run hammer down week in and week out and still maintain the cars they have every week!!

They suggested we scratch the bottom lane with the rottera. No water.

And you said my post was horse sh1t???

Kudos to Jim Price and any other promoter that schedules a event this time of the year. It usually never ends up good.

Just another reason I'm glad WoO rescheduled the Illini.

[Mud Packer]

Which one was it?

Coke,

Your first post said it was a direct quote. The next one you said that it was the information that you were given. So who exactly did you hear this from?

[Captain Happy]

It's fashionable to some , to bash them.
