    More big races @ FALS have been won on the cushion than on the hub.

        lol Them Fairbury faithful will never forget a couple years ago. He's definitely not a crowd favorite at FALS.

          I sat in turn one for the fals frenzy expecting to be surrounded by boo birds but I never heard any...lots of cheers when he won... Could be the location

            IMO Bobby won some fans back. Give him time. We all know he's still quite young. He will have the boo birds, and have the cheers. I mean how cool it must be to be able to play the part of "hero" and "villain"...He's like Batman!

                That is exactly what it looked like. The right front most likely broke when he pounded the wall with it.

                  Did Cierra go kick the cushion's butt? Just kidding!!!

                  Bobby had a heck of a run going until he jumped the cushion.

                        While I don't care for Booby, I do enjoy watching him race. It wouldn't ruin my weekend seeing him win (like it does when Erb or Bloomer does) but I prefer he doesn't.

                          I think they should grade all the cushions down before the start of every major feature. Imo cushions are for sprint cars and drivers who can't pass clean or find a way to get the car good enough to win. I bet nascar puts a speed bump around the top of the track so some of the less fortunate teams can win lol. You have to be able to get the car to work in multiple grooves to win major championships unless your initials are JD

                            If you can't run the cushion you ain't worth watching

                              I think you would have a lot of the cushion runners agree with grading it down. The tall berm is what hurts the high side guys, not help them. Jump the berm and you taste the wall. It's the moisture right at the cushion that gets side bite and forward drive. Being able to run high, low and the middle is a sign of a well rounded driver. If you can't drive where the guy in front of you isn't, the view never changes.
