        The cars were almost on the go kart track in 3 & 4. I don't know why they didn't push those tires back out. It wasn't a very good race, IMO. But it beat a Friday night/Saturday morning at work, so I can't complain too much.

          Last season was some of the best all out racing I have ever seen anywhere. Someone different prepping the track. Last season you could have probably ran 2 more super late model features at the end of the night without a total black slick situation.

                Must be a WoO thing because the same thing happened at Duck River last month with the tires pushed way in more than usual. Pretty much killed the high line.

                  Did they invert top 2 from heats? How the hell did Shirley start 7th if he won a heat?

                    The WOO does a re-draw for top 2 in all 4 heats. Shirley obviously drew the "7". I wasn't there and did not see the video but Richards came from 8th to 2nd so there must have been a little passing. I'm sure it still wasn't what folks from around there are used to seeing. John 1*

                      I've been there a lot. I've never seen the tires get that far down. I don't know what 1 & 2 looked like. It really killed the race IMO.

                        Some of those cars ahead of him dropped out. Track was pitiful. Dusty during hot laps. I am a regular at moler raceway and ive already stressed my opinion to them. When you have a group of the baddest late models in the country showing up, dont forget your water truck at the house. Pitiful. Train race. Ppl dont show up to watch fast cars go slow. I talked with a few of the drivers in the pits that both stressed it was a terrible track. One saying "quit with the god (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) sheeps foot! Feels like running with 4 bent rims." The other which was a woo driver couldnt believe they called cars out to hot lap on a "baseball field" which was about what it was like. Sad part is, they know how to prep a track. Normally a good bottom groove and top cushion. Neither could be found last night i assure u that. Sucked. I will be back to support them though. I love the track but the dropped the ball BAD on this one. Note to mrp. If track is dusty and getting black in hot laps, get the water truck back out. The night could have been salvaged. Hell the track easnt even dark colored before the first car hit the track. Had last night been the first night id been to mrp id never go back again.

                          Richards started 5th, not 8th. He got to 3rd on the first lap and after Eckert dropped out he went to 2nd and stayed there. Moran got the 8 pill, and finished 5th.

                            O.K. the D.O.D. page shows Richards started 8th but like I said I wasn't there. I was just trying to give credit where it was due from what I read. I'm sure the racing was not very good especially for a big event where you would expect the track to be on their A-game as far as track prep goes. I don't understand why a lot of track do that for their big shows. Are they afraid of getting the track too heavy and there not being any passing because of that? I understand that slick tracks often provide for better racing but you gotta have a couple grooves.

                              I think if they had left the track alone after the heats, the race would've been better. They watered they very top, and very bottom of the track, which was odd to me, never seen them do that before. Moler is best when it slicks off to a curb at the top. When they watered the top it ruined all chances of that happening early. Jameson was rolling pretty good on the top at the end, but was so deep in traffic it was impossible to move forward very much.
