I have to give credit where credit is do. A well run show tonight. They started warm ups right on time and the 410 feature was completed within 2 hours with little down time and no messing around on a beautiful night for racing. The track was a little rough and a tad dusty, but nothing the average sprint car fan couldn't handle. A well deserved win by Logan Wagner. Job well done Susky.

Indeed... The show was run with minimal screwing around.
Lincoln 1845 ft/.35 mile T1=118MPH
Eldora 2287 ft/.43mile T3=135MPH
Port 2716 ft/.51 mile T3=TBD
Grove 2792 ft/.53 mile T3=135MPH
Selinsgrove 2847 ft/.54 mile T1=136MPH

Yes it absolutely was ran well. I've been on Susky for the way they ran sprint shows, and this one was ran well in all facets. Good job to Scott, Kolten and Co. Keep up the good work.

I'll second or third that. Scott shook everybodys hand after a well run professional show. I was impressed. I heard bitchin last yr. about time trials, if they can get that down like they ran tonites show, probably best track in central PA.

I agree with the others. Susky had their act together last night. I also agree that the track was rough and dusty but it was very racy. My only real complaint is the newly constructed flagman's tower. It is so huge that it blocks fan's sightlines. I tired several different seats and was not able to find anywhere that I could see the entire track. I ended up about halfway between turn 4 and the finish line where I was unable to see any of turn 2. Scott did you really need to make it so big?

Yes... Sprint side panels on the flag stand have ruined the sightlines of the action coming out of turn 4...remove them or put 12 foot stilts under the grandstand... Whichever is more cost effective.
I will not be considering Sprint as my wireless carrier until this is done...

I have to agree, I was sitting lower than I normally do, just past the starter's stand, and my view of the 4th turn was impaired. I am all for safety for the flagmen, but that new stand is pretty damn big.
