.......for coming to south central Pa. Nice race weekend at 4 diverse tracks.
For the first time in months it seems, Mother Nature co-operated with race fans. Other than a short rain delay at Lincoln, the weather was great.
Four races with four different winners. Hodnett's win at Susky was the most dominate of the four. Unfortunate that Abreu blew a tire at the Grove while leading.Think it would have been fun to see him and DD battle it out thru traffic. Kudos to Forsythe and the 2w team for the win at Lincoln. Always nice to see an underfunded team get a big win. Freddie with the win at Grandview continues to impress.
Really nice to see Sammy, Rico, Smoke, and Tim Shaffer show up to race. All Stars bring a nice group of cars. Always nice to see Chad Kemenah in the house. Stambaugh had a nice run at Susky on a tricky track. Enjoy seeing Caleb Helms, Caleb Armstrong,A J Michael in person. Nice seeing pseudo Posse drivers Ryan Smith and Tyler Esh as well. Esh' improvement since running 358's locally is noticeable.
Nothing negative intended, but I'm amazed at how the lesser funded teams stay on the tour. They're living a dream I guess.
Hoping this four day stint is on the All Star schedule for next year .

I actually prefer the All-Star races to the Outlaws races. They are cheaper, there is always a good crowd but I do have enough room that I don't feel like people are sitting on my lap. Its a cool group of drivers (Kemenah, Shaffer, Armstrong, Smith, etc) and always good to see extra money on the line. I would prefer Lincoln axe the Outlaws race and just have 3 All Star races per season personally (but it will never happen). I have yet to attend an Outlaws race this season (I generally look to see where the URC or PASS is on the Saturday's that the Outlaws are around, and I go to Trail Way for the Friday's) but I've made sure to attend the All Stars shows every chance I get.

Same here. I catch as many All Star races as I can out here on Ohio, and won't cross the street for an Outlaw race. I am so happy Stewart bought the series. Always entertaining, well-run shows.

Depends on where he finishes  He's been looking good for not being in a 410 very often this year. Guess old (good) habits stay around don't they!

I doubt he gets anything other than whatever percentage Coldren pays him. He's here to run the 07 not just because the all-stars were in town. They skipped the ASCoC saturday night to run at Port.

I wish we could get the All Stars to roll through here. In my opinion they offer the most competitive and exciting races.

I had a lot of fun for my first trip to Grove/Lincoln/Susky. Wish the All-Stars had a better showing across the board, but there were some bright spots for sure.

I agree with well run shows. Don Grabey is a true professional and Smoke hit a home run when he hired Don away from the WoO.
