Selinsgrove is the high speed ring, hammer down all the way around. Why bring Port Royal and Lance into it? This is why people have to assume you are 10 years old. I dig Selinsgrove, I was there a few weeks ago, the racing was great but dusty as susky. I like being able to see the back stretch.from my seats on the front stretch. I hope Selinsgrove can fix that problem.

The top 4 cars were definitely "ripping the lip" at amazing speed. It was entertaining and nice to see the cushion up high at selinsgrove instead of around the middle. I don't know if they really needed to water the top before the feature. The racing is always best when you have a top and bottom groove in play instead of one lane being dominant. Still a great show. Great field of cars and massive crowd. BTW LD started 7th and finished 4th, not too shabby if you ask me.

It was moderately dusty up on the turn 1 hill. Safety glasses were needed but you could still see the whole track pretty well.

I'm sure Selinsgrove Speedway is embarrassed to have you as a fan. NOBODY wants to be associated with you and your "friend". Just go away. Nobody cares what you say, nobody believes what you say, including Lincoln and Selinsgrove. You're a flat out embarrassment to yourself and central pa racing in general.  As a central pa fan of the big 4 tracks, you have zero clue with anything. Lance was just fine last night. There was not much movement in the top 10 because everyone was top speed around the top, and personally, not really that great of a race besides the pass for the lead. this past Wednesday was clearly and obviously the best race of the week. And that was at Port Royal. 

Strawser, what do you have against Lance?

True. I very much enjoyed Selinsgrove last night and it's my hometown track, but Port's feature Wednesday was the race of the week. Every heat at SG was won from the pole and there wouldn't have been a pass in the top 3 of the A if not for lapped traffic. The track was looking perfect for the feature but for some reason they felt the need to water the cushion. That works well with 360's and LM's who need the extra grip to make the top work, but 410's are a different animal. You kind of need to slow the top for the 410's at most tracks anymore to see the best racing. PS. How was that initial start not called back?

There's hope for humanity!

Playing good cop/bad cop with yourself? How adorable.......

Here is a thought, move the Selinsgrove race back to the first Sunday of PA Speedweek and get rid of that shithole, BAPS. Dust, BAPS is disgusting. I don't mind some dust but getting sand blased is no way to enjoy a race. 

Why doesn't Selinsgrove ever show up on DV or Flo?

sprintcarunlimited.tv does live streaming for the bigger Selinsgrove races. You have to pay for each race.

Again, dumb comment.  Lance was 3rd quick in time trials when the track was faster than it was in the feature, so therefore not too fast for them.  That team sets the car up to work where everyone else doesnt for the feature so they can actually pass cars.  Their winning percentage since they have been together is as high as anyone's in the country except larson.  (In the 30s last time I checked)  When it works, it is impressive.  When they are off, it still isn't that bad.  Lots of teams can free the car up and bounce it off the cushion or the wall.  Its take a lot of knowledge, skill and ability to make the car work where no one else can.  These are the facts that you mistake for a track that is too fast.

Cool story bro. I mean, it must be true because you said so and I read it on the internet. Can't put anything on the internet that isn't true.

The "Speed Palace" has never been in PA...Or even east of the Mississippi. It sits in a town of 1,879 people and makes grown men cry.
