    Have they mentioned Earl?

    This being the first big race at the house that Earl built since his death, is there any kind of special memorial events happening at the big E, any words being said about Earl over the speakers?

    What's being done out there to give thanks to the man who made this the best of the beast in the world dirt racing?

      Every time I hears the word "Earl", it was for Pearson getting into the wall again

        Haven't heard anything mentioned about him yet, but I'm sure that they have something planned for today. I found it strange not to be hearing him mentioned more. I hope that Bernice shows up tonight so we can show our respect and sympathy to her for all that she and Earl gave to the sport. I've seen him and her there for years and I regret not going up to him and shaking his hand and telling him Thanks.

          Good to see sombody cares. Sure seems to me like there isn't enough thanks being given to the man that gave so much. I just don't want to hear one day people say... Earl who? That would really suck!

                    Thank you Zac. I think we all appreciate Earl and know there'll never be another. Need to find my book, hoping I had him sign it.
                    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                        Is it possible that they are waiting till the world? After all that is what Eldora and Earl are all about, right?

                              I'd imagine u will see some cool wraps and maybe a bit more effort by eldora speedway at the world 100, that IS THE CROWN JEWEL RACE
