Brownstown Speedway and the Lucas Oil Series

[Clayton_Wetter]

I do agree to some degree. I made a weekend out of Chillicothe and Brownstown. I was happy with Chillicothe but not so much with Brownstown. It is March and I was Needing a fix for late model racing, so it wasn't a total let down. I will say after my first trip to atomic, it won't be my last. Awesome track, good history and great track prep.

Atomic certainly was an exception. lol

I don't understand why everybody is just talking about this race. I have been to the last 6 lucas races at brownstown and I have seen one good race. The race on Saturday does not compare to the one a couple of years ago, The Jackson, when Jimmy O won. I guarantee you that the cars were not even going 60 mph down the straightaways. The one this past Saturday doesnt compare to some I have seen there. I keep saying I won't go back, my wife couldn't believe I wanted to go the other night, wished I hadn't.

I've dealt with this problem for many years and I keep hoping that someone will put an end to it and commit to making a good track surface to run on. Lucas races includes!!

The trouble is, is that they can get away with a "hit and run" race once or twice a year at all the tracks they go to and buy next season the "dry slick express" is all but forgotten.

Not to disagree with you Husker, but how do you think Lucas would respond if the next 6-10 races were as tacky and hooked up as Atomic was last weekend? I think the touring regulars would voice their opinions enough that the series would have to respond somehow. I enjoy and prefer a hammer down track but I respect the racers, especially the touring guys that can't afford to miss a race because of torn up equipment. I have been to some tracks that generally prep a fast track on a weekly basis, then when Lucas comes to town, it's a dust bowl.

Captain, you need to be banned or just shut the F up. Bottom line is a promoter came on line to apologize and all you can do argue. You are a cancer to the sport!
Thank you Mr. Prince for your statement! For you to make any statement shows you are all in . I as well as most that goes to Brownstown will be back because we know you will make it right. See you soon!

I think a wee bit of tolerance and respect would be welcome to you!!

Apparently you Lucas bashers weren't at Atomic on Friday. Twelve cars broke the track record. Knocked over half a second off of the TR. Track was not smooth or slick. Davenport was still faster than the old track record in the feature.


I was also at Atomic Friday , awesome show. Davenport Broke the track record on lap 39 of 50 in the feature. Superman smoked the field. But it was 2-3 wide for the entire 50 laps from about 3rd on back hammered down racing on the tackiest track I have ever seen. Don't blame Lucus oil series because they can only race on the track that is presented to them & im sure the Brownstown owner never intended on the poor track conditions.

I don't think you think I did, but I wasn't bashing Atomic at all. They did a really good job with the track.

Do you talk to your mom that way sweets? Anyway... It's ok to have differences of opinions. I too thought it was pretty cool He came on here and took the hit "maned up" shows caricature and credibility!! I love B-Town been going there for many years now, when Lucas ain't there...

Florence Speedway with the North/South race is usually great with no qualifying and straight up racing with the pill draw and double heats ....I love that race and last year it was incredible. I hope that this years is as good as last years.
Come to that show I don't think you will be disappointed

Exactly!! My mistake was not putting enouh emphasis in my posts to folks like husker that I was making an observational opinion based on the simple facts!! Good Greffis, do we have to explain everything to him???

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!!

Sure the touring regulars would voice there opinions, as would series officials. That's expected. But to say that Lucas controls the track prep at every(or any) race is a short sighted statement. They can make suggestions..... Does the track have to listen? Nope. Brownstown Speedway proved that with the posts they made on here. It was a bad race and right out of gate somebody blamed the series. Talk about speaking with there head shoved up there a$$. The weather this spring had been ridiculous. There was some doubt 14 days ago these races were even gonna happen. Nobody really knew what those two races were gonna bring as far as conditions go.

Whether it's hammer down or dry slick. A group of people aren't gonna be happy.
