I noticed Hunter Schuerenburg is in the Mike McGhee #11 tonight. Did I miss something, where is Dale Blaney?

The way 11 is driven tonight, Blaney may have seen his last ride in it........

It's kind of a shame that the Ironman doesn't get more cars. It's such a cool racey track but I guess the date isn't the best for them being the same night as the 410 drivers w/360 motors nationals at Knoxville. Isn't the ironman purse more than what the 410 drivers/360 Nat's pay?

The 360 Nationals purse isn’t bad ($15k to win, $1k to start), but yes, Iron Man purse is better ($20k to win, $1k to start... more money in between). Pevely has been a tire eating joke the past couple years at times... maybe was a factor? It seemed to be pretty good tonight though. J-Mac said tonight when interviewed, it takes practice to run the bottom well at Knoxville. Extra laps, albeit in a 360, doesn’t hurt.

With the midgets you don’t need 40 cars for a good show.

Jmac running 360 nats. Booooooooo
|
The boo was meant for the fact that he doesn't have a lot of 360 experience and was so good in the KKR 410. I questioned the decision to run the 360 Nats instead of I55.
Good call on my part.....
Congrats mate .

Wonder if getting flooded has a long term effect on the track surface....is the whole track underwater when the river floods?

He was having a knee issue after a wreck in NY a few weeks ago. Not sure if that is it or not

No flood has nothing to do with the track surface farthest it gets is outer pit area although some does backflow into infield when it's real bad. They reworked the track several times and kept alot of moisture in it last night.

One of the best drives I’ve ever seen. Every lap was on the edge, I wanted to see him backoff a bit because it looked like he was going to crash but I’m glad he didn’t, because that was incredible to watch.
