Tazz or Duck River

[mad_CADer]

It depends on if you want to see a race or if you want to see an incredibly fast freight train? I agree everyone needs to see Tazewell at least once, but once is enough. Been there several times and have never seen a good race. Been to Duck River several times and never seen a bad one. I would much rather stay a little late and see a good race as opposed to getting out at 10 pm and feeling like I have wasted my money.

There are a lot of race tracks that are closed because they wanted to race till 2 o'clock in the morning you should a least start the feature before midnight that Labor Day night you spoke of they didn't even run the late model race first after being that far behind which tells me they don't care about the fans everybody is not off on Labor Day after all that is what everybody is there for.

Looking at doing at least one of the two nights for the WOO in April.
Good, bad of both tracks and what one you would recommend.
Thanks

The Duck I think has more passing than Taz. I'm thinking of making a trip to FALS, that place looks unbelievable.

I have never left Duck River before 2am for a big show. They are on central time, several commuting fans are on EST. They say the drivers meeting will start at certain time, it never does, they say racing will start at certain times, it never does. I really enjoyed the racing, but I cannot sit there for 8 or 9 hours waiting for the big show. If Duck River would run a timely show and keep things moving, they would have to build stands all around the race track to accommodate the fans. JMO

When Tazewell lets the track prep turn the track black then it is a freight train. But if they have plenty of moisture then the track is the fastest track there is and the racing is also very good. I have made several 290 mile one way trips to Tazewell and am glad I did.

Tazwell is the best it's very steep banked so the car's attain tremendous speed IAnd when the car's wreck they are usually out for the night

Duck River, great racing, super sight lines and hot action.

Went to the Taz for the Lucas race last year and could not believe how the best cars came off the turns, like they were shot out of a cannon. Hope to make it to Duck River this year.

That's the best race I've seen at Tazewell to date. Mainly because of Davenport. He definitely put on a show that night.

Never been to Taz, but never saw a bad race at The Duck...

I have been to both tracks and the racing is more side by side at Duck River. Taz is like the old carnival show with the motorcycle going around and around. Very little side by side action. It reminded me of the old 1980's Atomic Speedway. Fast around the top. The show does drag on at Duck!!!! Many people like that but I for one believe that they have too many classes and WAY WAY too much qualifying. But for a WOO show they might reduce some of the support classes. MIGHT. But overall racing Duck River is better because they run two and sometimes three widenin the turns. It's not as fast but what difference does it make if the racing is boring. JMO

For y'all saying the Taz doesn't have good racing, did you miss the WOO show last year? Ogle put it in them. Also, if you never heard a driver say he was scared of the Taz, then you've never been around anyone who has raced there. ALL the touring guys are scared of that place, how can you not be? The wall in the middle of 1&2 is 6 inches high. Launch pad.

The taz is bad fast and your right most of the touring guys don't like because they don't go there much it was really fast when John Thompson run it I think the track record is about 10.8 I read an article were they swapped the lead 5 times in 6 laps for the next 5 years I went to ever big race and enjoyed ever one of them and it is a 3 hour drive for me one way.
